Legislative Updates

The Virginia General Assembly commenced its 2008 Regular Session on
January 9, 2008. The following summary report of bills ("Report") is
designed to keep members of the Metropolitan Richmond Women's Bar
Association ("MRWBA") aware of legislation that may impact their
practices and interests. This is the first report of three reports.

This Report generally focuses on legislation relating to Attorneys,
Courts and Judges; Civil Remedies and Procedure; Creditor's Rights and
Bankruptcy; Criminal Law and Procedure; Education; Employment and Labor
Law; Family Law and Domestic Relations; Health and Insurance; Juvenile
Justice and Minors; Mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution; and Miscellaneous.

Some of the bills contained in this Report could be included under
multiple categories of legislation, but in the interest of economy and
brevity, the Committee has listed each bill only a single time under one
category. While the Legislative Committee has prepared what it hopes to
be a comprehensive report, alphabetically listed by subject, the purpose
of the Report is not to identify and monitor every important measure.


A report can be opened in Word document format for each of the following areas:
