A Mississippi House panel has approved a bill that would give state agencies a say in the retention of counsel to represent the state. The bill also provides that all legal service contracts be approved through the state’s contracts review board, and adds public disclosure to proposed contracts for hourly as well as contingency fee litigation on behalf of the state. The bill, opposed by the AG, now moves onto the full House for debate, reports the Biloxi SunHerald.
