Modifies the statutes of limitations for civil actions based on certain sexual offenses
SJR 76 would change the time limits for victims to file civil lawsuits related to specific sexual offenses. Currently, victims may face strict deadlines to sue, but this bill extends those timeframes for certain cases. The key provision modifies statutes of limitations, allowing more time for individuals to pursue legal action after experiencing sexual misconduct. This directly affects survivors seeking civil remedies for qualifying offenses under the bill's scope. The bill remains pending, with no enacted changes yet.
