Litigation Transparency Act of 2025

# Litigation Transparency Act of 2025 - Summary **What It Would Do** The Litigation Transparency Act of 2025 would require greater disclosure of information related to civil lawsuits, legal fees, and court costs. While the bill's specific provisions aren't detailed in the summary provided, legislation with this title typically aims to make legal proceedings and associated expenses more publicly visible and accessible. **Who It Affects** This bill would impact parties involved in civil litigation (plaintiffs and defendants), attorneys, courts, and potentially the general public by changing what lawsuit information becomes public record. It could affect both individual lawsuits and larger settlement agreements. **Current Status** The bill was introduced by Rep.

Darrell Issa (R-CA) in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it's under review and hasn't yet advanced to a full floor vote. At this stage, it could be revised, combined with other bills, or remain in committee without further action. *Note: For complete details on specific provisions (such as which documents must be disclosed or any exceptions), you would need to review the full text of HR 1109 on Congress.gov.*.
