Determining liability for exposure to asbestos or silica

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill clarifies when a lawsuit can be filed for harm caused by asbestos or silica exposure. It states that the clock for filing a lawsuit starts when a person is diagnosed with an asbestos or silica-related illness, discovers facts pointing to such an illness, or dies from it. The bill also specifies that claims for non-cancerous conditions are separate from cancer claims and generally prohibits damages for fear of future illness.
