Digest
HB 1139 voids venue provisions in contracts for improvements to real property located in Texas that require litigation to occur outside the state. If such a provision is voided, disputes must be litigated in the county where the defendant resides, the cause of action accrued, or the subject property is located, unless the parties stipulate otherwise.
