A bill for an act modifying the periods of time to bring certain civil actions by victims of sexual abuse and other sexual offenses that occurred when the victim was a minor, entitling certain cases to a preference in trial order, and including effective date provisions.

This bill extends the time period for minors to file civil lawsuits related to sexual abuse or exploitation that occurred during their childhood. It allows victims to file claims within 10 years of discovering the injury and its connection to the abuse, or until they turn 18 - whichever is later. The bill also revives previously time-barred cases (filed before the law's effective date) for a three-year window, and grants these cases priority in court scheduling. These provisions specifically apply to civil actions against counselors, therapists, school employees, or others providing training/education.
