Child Victims Act passes in NY Senate, Assembly​

Lexi Nahl Louis Finley 29 Jan 2018 WTEN News

ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10) - The Child Victims Act passed in the New York State Legislature on Monday more than a decade after the bill was introduced.

The bill passed with unanimous support in the NY Senate and passed in the Assembly by a vote of 130-3.

The bill would extend the statute of limitations for civil and criminal cases involving victims of childhood sexual abuse. . . .

The attorney general likely in process of a Pennsylvania-style grand jury here.

More to come. Probably within a year . . . .
  • Create a one-year window during which presently time-barred civil claims could be revived.
