Kemp’s tort reform package limits business lawsuits | Georgia
SUMMARY: Governor Brian Kemp unveiled a tort reform package aimed at holding businesses accountable while limiting “frivolous lawsuits.” The proposed reforms include capping damages to actual medical bills and informing juries about seat belt use in auto accidents. Kemp advocates banning “anchoring tactics” in closing arguments to ensure juries can make independent judgments, rather than relying on unrelated benchmarks. He emphasizes that the current legal environment hinders Georgia’s economic growth. Business groups support the plan, but Democrats argue that insurance reform is also necessary to provide immediate relief from rising premiums. Kemp hinted at a potential special session if reforms aren’t passed.
