How Many Months Will It Take to Settle a Butte County Probation Camp Program Sexual Abuse Lawsuit?
It takes around 12 to 24 months to settle the majority of sexual abuse cases against minors at a California juvenile hall. This is based on the case resolution timeline that we’ve come to expect from many years of recovering settlements on behalf of child sexual assault victims.
If some instances, a juvenile hall sexual abuse claim may be settled in 4 to 8 weeks. This is rare, however, as the entities you are suing are unlikely to offer a fair compensation amount. That’s why it takes at least a few months to settle cases of sexual abuse at a juvenile detention facility. On average, we would say it takes anywhere from 6 to 24 months before a settlement is reached.
It will take longer for a Butte County Probation Camp Program sexual assault case to settle if your case goes to trial. Trials are only necessary in a small fraction of cases, but it can take 3 years or longer to settle a lawsuit if it goes before a judge and jury. This is often the case with class action lawsuits that are filed by multiple victims of sexual abuse at a Butte County Probation Camp Program.

How Many Years Does it Take to Settle a Butte County Probation Camp Program Abuse Lawsuit?
Sexual abuse lawsuits that are especially complicated take 2 or more years to settle, especially when they involve underage victims. It will take 3 to 4 years to settle a Butte County Probation Camp Program sex abuse lawsuit if the case goes to trial, though this is unlikely. Around 95% of all child sexual assault lawsuits are settled without the need for a trial, though it can take years of negotiations before both sides agree on a settlement amount.
Class Action Lawsuits for Sexual Assault at a Juvenile Hall
In most cases, settling a Butte County Probation Camp Program sexual abuse class action lawsuit will take 2 to 3 years, and even longer if the case has to be tried in court. As a general rule, class action lawsuits take longer to settle than personal injury lawsuits, and this is based on multiple factors, including:
- The time needed to reach out to plaintiffs and wait to hear back from them.
- The number of victims and the time that’s needed to investigate their claims and gather evidence.
- Court requirements to classify a lawsuit as a class action (certifying a class action)
It takes around 12 months to settle a Butte County Probation Camp Program abuse lawsuit if the plaintiffs and defendant agree to a settlement offer. However, plaintiffs are not under any obligation to accept a settlement, which means that the case may go before a judge. Obtaining a court ruling for a class action lawsuit is a complicated and time-consuming process, and that’s why these cases take so long to resolve.
