How long do I have to sue over personal injury in California?
Answered for: California
335.1. Within two years: An action for assault, battery, or injury to, or for the death of, an individual caused by the wrongful act or neglect of another.
The statute states 2 years for personal injury. When that clock starts, and whether it can be paused, are separate questions this entry does not answer.
This answer is true in California and nowhere else on this site. Another jurisdiction is another answer, or an honest gap: see what has been read for California.
