Texas Business Court Poised to Usher in New Era of High Stakes Commercial Litigation
In this article for The Texas Lawbook, partners Anna Rotman, Nick Brown and Ben Barnes and associate Ally Arias discuss the Texas business court bill and how it might impact business litigation in Texas.
“The Texas business litigation bar is abuzz with anticipation as the Texas business court bill from 2023 heads to Gov. Greg Abbott’s desk for signature. Arguably the most transformative change to the Texas judiciary since tort reform, the bill has potential to reshape the way businesses in Texas resolve complex disputes. Despite many open questions, the bill, which would require the business court to begin hearing qualifying cases beginning on Sept. 1, 2024, stands to impact business litigation in Texas sooner than later.”
