The NSBA supports this legislation. This legislation would provide that the use of a mobile telephone while simultaneously operating a motor vehicle creates a rebuttable presumption of negligence if the operator of the motor vehicle is involved in a traffic accident during such use. This bill would not apply to an operator of an authorized emergency vehicle. The NSBA opposes creating a rebuttable presumption in this situation. Amends Section 44-2828 to lengthen the current ten year statute of repose in malpractice or professional negligence actions to twenty years after the date of rendering or failing to render such professional service which provides the basis for the cause of action.
Current law provides for a ten year statute of repose in such situations.
