COURTS-TECH
HB 4821 is a technical amendment to the Jury Act's short title section (705 ILCS 305/0.01), correcting a duplicated reference in the citation format. It does not change any substantive court procedures, policies, or affect any individuals or groups. The bill solely updates the legal citation to match the correct short title ("Jury Act") without altering the law's content. This is a procedural correction, not a policy change, and the "TECH" in the bill title is misleading as it relates to no technology provisions. The bill is currently in committee referral after its initial filing.
