Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the civil practice law and rules, in relation to extending the statute of limitations for certain child sexual abuse cases
AI Summary
This bill amends the civil practice law and rules to extend the statute of limitations for certain child sexual abuse cases. Specifically, it revives civil claims or causes of action that were previously barred because the applicable statute of limitations had expired, and allows such actions to be commenced within two years and six months after the effective date of the bill. The bill also clarifies that dismissal of a previous action on the grounds that it was time-barred or due to failure to file a notice of claim shall not be grounds for dismissal of a revived action under this law. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage.
