State House To Take Up Potential Changes To State’s Statute Of Limitations For Child Sexual Abuse Lawsuits

The State House is about to take up potential changes to the state’s statute of limitations for child sexual abuse lawsuits. Auditor General Eugene DePasquale is calling on the General Assembly to take action this fall to allow adult victims of child sex abuse to seek justice…

The Republican speaker of the Pennsylvania House- Mike Turzai- is predicting a 2-year window to allow victims with older claims to sue would likely pass his chamber….and is calling the 2-year window “a compromise” compared to a proposal to entirely eliminate the statute of limitations retroactively.
