HR 11 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

General Assembly, Review Or Ratification of Rules - Ratifies and approves the amendments and revisions to the Tennessee Rules of Civil Procedure, as promulgated by the Supreme Court. -

This resolution (HR 11) formally approves amendments to Tennessee's Rules of Civil Procedure that were previously established by the Tennessee Supreme Court. It directly affects Tennessee courts, lawyers, and individuals involved in civil lawsuits by making the court's updated procedural rules official. The resolution does not change the rules themselves but ratifies the Supreme Court's December 2024 promulgation of these amendments, which govern how civil cases are handled in state courts. The action completes a required legislative step for the court's rule changes to take effect.
