AI Summary
This bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 20-18-105(a), a part of civil procedure law, by increasing the minimum time a court must allow the General Assembly to fix any problems with a redistricting plan from fifteen (15) calendar days to ninety (90) calendar days. Redistricting is the process of drawing new boundaries for legislative districts, and this change provides a significantly longer period for the legislature to make necessary corrections if a court finds issues with a plan.
