My question would be 'is it retroactive?

The amendments made by sections 1714, 1715, and 1716 shall apply to all actions or proceedings pending on or after the date of enactment of this Act, unless a court of competent jurisdiction has entered judgment (regard- less of whether the time for appeal has expired) in such action or proceeding disposing of the entire action or proceeding.

well, looks like this is starting to flesh out some - wonder why the idiots in the press did not put forth any effort to explain any of this?
