Bill Summary · HB 947

Legislative bill overview

HB 947 is a Florida civil actions bill that was substituted with CS/CS/SB 832 and subsequently laid on table in April 2025, meaning it did not advance for a vote. The bill's specific provisions are not publicly detailed in the available action records, making precise analysis of its content unavailable.

Why is this important

Civil actions legislation affects access to courts, litigation procedures, and remedies available to Florida residents and businesses. Without the bill's text, the real-world impact—whether it expands or restricts legal rights, changes filing requirements, or modifies damages—cannot be determined from the legislative actions alone.

Potential points of contention

  • The bill's substitution with another measure (CS/CS/SB 832) suggests significant revisions that may have altered sponsor intent or created disagreement
  • The indefinite postponement and tabling indicate floor opposition or procedural concerns that prevented passage
  • Without access to the actual bill language, specific controversial provisions cannot be identified
