AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 20, Chapter 18, which relates to civil procedure, specifically concerning the process for correcting errors in redistricting plans. The key provision is that it increases the minimum amount of time a court must grant the General Assembly to fix any identified problems or defects in a redistricting plan from fifteen (15) calendar days to ninety (90) calendar days. Redistricting is the process of drawing new boundaries for electoral districts, often following a census, and this change provides a significantly longer period for lawmakers to make necessary adjustments if a court finds issues with the plan.
