Bill Summary
Relative to arbitration agreements. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing Massachusetts General Laws to specify that the statute of limitations for filing a lawsuit is not tolled (or paused) when a case is dismissed due to an arbitration agreement. Arbitration is a private, out-of-court process for resolving disputes, and this bill seeks to address how that process impacts the time frame for filing a lawsuit. The bill's changes would apply to any matter of form, or a dismissal resulting from an arbitration agreement.
