The General Assembly of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania is pushing towards a change to both the tort limit and the
statute of limitations on childhood sexual abuse cases in both private
and public institutions. This is being called House Bill 1947.
The statute of limitations for childhood sexual abuse allegations provides a set length of time for criminal charges to be filed against a defendant. Currently the statute of limitations in Pennsylvania is 12 years after the victim reaches the age of 18. Tort is the amount of money a person can sue for in court.
