Google is endorsing a bill that would require people filing lawsuits to disclose who will be paying for – and profiting from – the litigation.
The bill, introduced last week by California Republican Representative Darrell Issa, would require plaintiffs to reveal any investors who could make money based on the outcome of a case. It would also require parties to disclose the financing agreement between investors and those involved.
