New Act  
Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Motor Vehicle Glass Repair Act. Provides that an insured under a property and casualty insurance policy shall not, either prior to or after a claimed or covered loss, assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, to any other person the insured's: (1) duties under the policy; or (2) rights or benefits under the policy. Provides that any contract violating the delegation prohibition shall be void and unenforceable. Sets forth provisions concerning a motor vehicle glass shop's notice requirements to an insured; motor vehicle glass repair claims and practices; prohibited acts; and an insured's right to choose a motor vehicle glass repair shop. Establishes a presumption that a motor vehicle glass repair shop is acting knowingly in violation of provisions concerning prohibited acts if the motor vehicle glass repair shop engages in a regular and consistent pattern of the prohibited activity. Requires the Department of Insurance to adopt rules necessary to administer and implement the Act, including rules to enforce compliance with the Act.
