Sometimes the statute of limitations can be extended under what’s called the discovery rule. In other words, if a person’s not aware that they’ve been injured, the statute of limitations does not begin until they discover that injury or that there was someone or something responsible for that injury. We often see this in pharmaceutical litigation. The pharmaceutical company will put a medicine on the market, and it will be discovered that that medicine causes injuries.
