Relating to certain actions for personal injury that arise out of a sexual offense against a child or disabled individual and are brought against a non-perpetrator of the offense.

HB 5074 extends the time limit for filing personal injury lawsuits related to sexual offenses against children or disabled individuals from 30 to 35 years. It creates a new legal pathway for victims to sue organizations or employees (non-perpetrators) who failed to prevent abuse through inadequate safety measures. The bill requires organizations to implement "safe environment programs" with mandatory background checks, employee training on abuse prevention, and reporting protocols for abuse allegations. To succeed in such lawsuits, victims must prove their case with "clear and convincing evidence," a higher standard than typical civil claims.
