This bill creates a one-time opportunity for people who were sexually abused as children to file lawsuits for damages even if the normal deadline has passed, but only if they file by July 1, 2023. The bill also clarifies that adult survivors under age 40 can sue anyone involved in the abuse, while those 40 and older can only sue the person who actually committed the abuse. After July 1, 2023, the special revival window closes and the normal time limits apply again.
