Faster group proceedings: closed groups and anti-delay protection

The bill changes rules for group claims to make court cases shorter. Citizens will be able to create closed groups with a fixed number of members, speeding up case handling. Individual settlements with defendants will no longer delay group proceedings, and after winning a group case, members can pursue higher compensation in separate individual lawsuits.
Key points
Closed groups: you can decide that no new members join your group lawsuit – cases start faster without waiting for additional claimants.
No more delays: defendants cannot slow down group proceedings by making individual deals with selected group members.
Extra claims after verdict: if the group won a standardized amount, each member can later sue individually for higher compensation.
Quicker case start: courts will immediately check if a group lawsuit is admissible, cutting unnecessary formalities.
