UPDATE: This bill has been amended to remove the sales representative license requirement. Bill is still making its way through Committee.
Senate Bill 823 proposes to amend the state’s Service Warranty Act, in part, by requiring licensure and appointment of sales representatives, i.e., those who act as the retail seller of a service warranty. This bill would apply to motor vehicle and consumer goods service warranties. Regulation of home service contracts would be unaffected by this legislation.
The bill also proposes new provisions relating to enforcement and prohibited acts If enacted, the law would become effective November 1, 2015
