GA court Ruling Sets Precedent for Litigation Financing Industry
Consistent with the weight of authority, the Georgia Supreme Court has ruled that certain litigation financing agreements structured as asset sales were not disguised "loans," and therefore not subject to the state's Industrial Loan Act (ILA) or Payday Lending Act (PLA). The decision is significant because it is helpful precedent not only for litigation financing providers facing similar challenges but also for providers of merchant cash advances and companies involved in other transactions structured as sales rather than loans.
