What Is The Statute Of Limitations To Sue Camp Francis Scobee For Sexual Abuse?
All victims should understand that they are working within a time limit to file their lawsuit with the court. The Statute of Limitations defines the specific amount of time to file your claim based on the legal matter involved in the lawsuit. So, the time provided will vary. However, the one constant is that when a time limit to file a claim expires, the victim permanently loses the right to seek justice and compensation via a lawsuit. It is also imperative that you know that there are typically no exceptions to this time limit. So, if you miss the time to file your claim, you could be losing your only opportunity to file a lawsuit that could deliver $500K or more in compensation for your childhood sexual abuse.
Cases involving childhood sexual abuse or sexual assault allow the victim 22 years to seek legal guidance and then file a claim with the court if that is what they feel is in their best interest. The time to file the lawsuit begins when the victim reaches the age of majority at 18 and can legally enter into a lawsuit. The time lasts 22 years, expiring on the victim’s 40th birthday. If they fail to take advantage of that lengthy time limit, they will almost always have missed their only opportunity to file a lawsuit to seek compensation for the harm and losses suffered at Camp Francis Scobee.
How Can I Sue Camp Francis Scobee If The Statute Of Limitations Has Already Passed?
In most cases, once the time limit stated in the Statute of Limitations has passed, you have no right or ability to file a lawsuit against Camp Francis Scobee for sexual abuse suffered as a minor in that facility. However, the legal system does recognize one unique situation that can occur in a small number of sexual abuse and sexual assault cases involving minors.
In these rare cases, an adult does not learn that they were sexually abused or sexually assaulted as minors until they are past the age of 40. Under the time limit for sexual violations against minors, they would be past the time limit to file a lawsuit. However, the legal system determined that this is unfair to those victims who were never given the opportunity to seek justice and compensation as other victims are allowed to do. The solution was to create a five-year discovery period that applies only to those who learn of their sexual abuse as a child after they reach the age of 40.
When the five-year discovery period applies to a case, the victim has five years from the date of the discovery to seek legal assistance and file their case with the court. If the case is not presented to the court at that time, the victim loses the right to seek compensation and justice via a lawsuit. If you feel the five-year discovery period could apply to your case, please contact Kenmore Law Group immediately. Our team will schedule a free consultation with a skilled Camp Francis Scobee sexual abuse lawyer to evaluate your claim and determine if the additional time can be used to prepare and file your lawsuit.
