An Act relative to legal advertisements in online-only newspapers

HD 2699 modifies Massachusetts law regarding legal notices published in online-only newspapers. It requires such newspapers to publish notices on both their own website and a statewide website to meet legal publication requirements (instead of needing print). The bill also states that errors caused by website operators or temporary outages won't invalidate a notice if it correctly appears on either the newspaper's site or the statewide site. This directly affects online-only newspapers publishing legal notices for court, government, or other required notices. The key change simplifies publication compliance for digital-only publications while addressing technical reliability.
