SB 1413 - Currently, the fee that a private attorney retained by the state is entitled to receive is limited based on a percentage of the amount that is recovered.

Furthermore, contingency fees shall only be payable from moneys received from judgments or settlement agreements and shall be based on any amount attributable to a fine or civil penalty. This act repeals these provisions. This act is identical to SB 600 (2023). KATIE O'BRIEN
