Plain-English Summary
This bill would change tax rules around litigation funding—money that outside investors provide to help people or companies pay for lawsuits. The legislation aims to prevent what supporters see as predatory practices where funders take excessive cuts of lawsuit settlements, potentially by making certain funding arrangements less tax-advantaged or more transparent. The changes would affect plaintiffs, defendants, and the investment companies that finance legal cases.
