§ 14270 Pending Cases Unaffected

Key Takeaways

  • •This law doesn't change any ongoing lawsuits or appeals that were already happening before January 1, 2008.
  • •If you were in a legal fight before 2008, this law won’t mess with it.
  • •It’s like a rule that says 'old problems stay old, new rules don’t apply to them.'

Example

Imagine you got into a car crash in 2007 and were suing the other driver.

This law won’t change anything about your case, even if the rules changed in 2008. Your lawsuit keeps going the same way.
