Montana HB247 would eliminate damages for injuries and death from dueling.
Montana HB247 amends the state's code to exclude damages for injuries or death arising from dueling. It modifies Section 27-1-301 to specify that prescribed damages are exclusive of those related to dueling. Additionally, it repeals Section 27-1-223, which previously addressed damages for injuries or death inflicted in a duel. This change means that individuals injured or killed in a duel would not be eligible for damages under state law.
