SB 66: Civil discovery.

California · Senate · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified December 7, 2025

What SB 66 does, verified December 7, 2025

This bill would amend and extend the provisions of the civil discovery act, which requires parties in a civil action to provide initial disclosures to other parties within 60 days of a demand. The disclosures must include relevant persons or records and information about insurance policies or contracts that could make a person or company liable for a judgment. The initial disclosures must be verified by a written declaration or signed by the party's counsel. This bill would remove the scheduled repeal date, indefinitely extending these provisions.
