Relating to: the civil causes of action for human trafficking and trafficking a child.

This bill creates new civil legal paths for victims of human trafficking and child trafficking. It extends the deadline for filing lawsuits related to trafficking a child to age 35, allowing victims to seek civil remedies even if no criminal case was prosecuted. The bill also establishes that victims can pursue actual damages, punitive damages up to triple the actual amount, and attorney fees in these cases. It directly affects individuals harmed by trafficking who wish to pursue civil action against perpetrators.
