AN ACT CONCERNING THE CIVIL AND CRIMINAL STATUTES OF LIMITATIONS FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT CASES.
SB 1141 eliminates all time limits for both criminal prosecution of sexual assault cases and civil lawsuits filed by survivors. This means prosecutors could bring charges at any time after the assault occurred, and survivors could file civil suits without being barred by a deadline. The bill directly affects survivors seeking justice through civil courts and prosecutors handling sexual assault cases. It removes existing statutes of limitations that previously restricted when these cases could be filed or prosecuted.
