Summary of Bill HR 1109
Bill 119 HR 1109 aims to make changes to title 28 of the United States Code in order to increase transparency and oversight of third-party beneficiaries in civil actions. The bill seeks to ensure that individuals or entities who are not directly involved in a lawsuit but may benefit from its outcome are held accountable and their interests are made known to all parties involved.
The proposed legislation would require third-party beneficiaries to disclose their interests in a civil action and provide information about their relationship to the parties involved. This transparency is intended to prevent any potential conflicts of interest and ensure that all parties are aware of who may benefit from the outcome of the lawsuit.
Additionally, the bill would establish mechanisms for oversight of third-party beneficiaries, allowing for greater scrutiny of their involvement in civil actions. This oversight is designed to protect the integrity of the legal system and ensure that all parties are treated fairly and impartially. Overall, Bill 119 HR 1109 seeks to promote transparency and accountability in civil actions involving third-party beneficiaries, ultimately strengthening the legal system and upholding the principles of justice and fairness.
