Notice of claim repealed

Scanning over the new legislation, I saw that Section 41 of the Metropolitan Transit Act was amended by just retaining a statute of limitations for personal injury actions against the Authority, and deleting all the requirements about notice of claim.

Since it appears that the CTA's main defense, since 1947, was based on notice of claim not being filed that met all the technicalities of Section 41, this ought to end all the collateral litigation, although not the CTA's obligation to pay.

My congrats to Sen. Silverstein for getting this done.
