I got an email this morning from a San Diego man who wanted people
in Pennsylvania to know how his state's statute of limitations reform
bill helped him and that the tactics being used to fight a statute bill
here are similar to those he has seen elsewhere.
California legislators in 2002 voted to open a one-year window for all child sex abuse victims to file suits, even if they were blocked by the statute of limitations. Paul Livingston and his brother -- abused as small children by the same Catholic school custodian -- were among the victims who filed suit, and the court settlement with the Los Angeles Archdiocese helped Paul finally get help with the aftermath of his abuse.
