The Georgia Senate nixed a bill that would have opened the door to sports betting in the state.

A Georgia Senate committee has advanced legislation to allow high-ranking company executives and government officials to avoid testifying in cases if they have no direct knowledge of the issue being litigated.

Georgia lawmakers have introduced legislation they say would allow “microenterprise operations” and home-based businesses to work out of home kitchens and in compliance with state law.

Proposed legislation would help reduce frivolous lawsuits, a Georgia business group says.
