Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill changes the time limit for filing lawsuits related to childhood sexual abuse in New Mexico. It extends the deadline for a person to file a lawsuit until their 58th birthday or three years after they first tell a medical or mental health provider about the abuse, whichever is later. The bill also allows lawsuits that were previously too old to be filed to be brought forward again, but they must be started by June 30, 2029.
