SB 324 - This act voids construction indemnification agreements, which hold someone harmless for damages resulting from negligence, omissions or wrongdoing, as against public policy and holds such agreements unenforceable, except for agreements of the indemnitor to hold another harmless for the indemnitor's own acts or the acts of the indemnitor's subcontractors. The act does not apply to construction bonds, insurance contracts or contractual provisions requiring one party to name another as an insured. Only agreements entered into after August 27, 1997, would be affected.
