A new House bill requires elected city attorneys to collect, compile, and submit annual reports to the Attorney General’s Office.

HB 2465, sponsored by Rep. Chris Gildon (R–Puyallup), received a public hearing in the House Civil Rights & Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, January 22. The bill mandates that elected city attorneys track case filings and submit an annual report to the Attorney General’s (AG) Office. The AG’s Office is required to compile all reports and publish the information to its website annually on February 28.
