SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Civil immunity and privileged communications. Provides immunity from civil liability for any act, decision, omission, or utterance made by a member of a community services board or a behavioral health authority in the performance of his duties, as long as such act, decision, omission, or utterance is not done in bad faith or with malice. While providing such immunity, the bill ensures that the minutes, records, and reports of such bodies are not privileged communications.
