AN ACT CONCERNING THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR FERTILITY FRAUD.

SB 555 extends the time limit for filing lawsuits related to fertility fraud in Connecticut. It allows victims to sue within three years after their minor child turns 18 (the age of majority) or three years after discovering the fraud - whichever comes later. This directly affects individuals who were deceived about fertility treatments, such as through unauthorized use of their genetic material. The bill changes the existing statute of limitations to provide a more reasonable timeframe for seeking damages for the personal injury caused by the fraud. It does not alter the definition of fertility fraud but adjusts when victims can legally pursue claims.
