HCS HB 474 -- INSURER INTERVENTION IN CIVIL ACTIONS (Yates)

COMMITTEE OF ORIGIN:  Insurance Policy

This substitute allows insurers to intervene in civil actions
where they may be obligated to provide a defense or indemnity for
any judgment rendered in the action.  The court will determine
the extent of the insurer's coverage obligations, but its
decision may be appealed.  Any action by the insurer will not
constitute a breach of contract.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds in FY 2006, FY 2007, and
FY 2008.
