HB 2992: Civil liability reform

Revising joint and several liability provisions.

Summary

Declares an intent to enact reforms that create a more equitable distribution of liability based upon one's proportionate share of fault. Finds, notwithstanding the tort reform measures it has enacted in the past, that in many instances defendants continue to pay more than their proportionate share of a claimant's total damages.
