Montana SB286 clarifies that court decisions interpreting statutes lose precedence if the legislature later acts on those statutes.
Montana SB286 establishes that any court decision interpreting a statute will yield to subsequent legislative action on those statutory provisions. This means that if the legislature amends or repeals a statute after a court has interpreted it, the court's interpretation no longer holds precedence. The bill codifies this principle as part of Montana's Title 1, chapter 1, part 1.
