AB 250: Sexual assault: statute of limitations.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified December 7, 2025

What AB 250 does, verified December 7, 2025

The bill extends the eligibility period for revival of claims related to sexual assault to include claims that would otherwise be barred prior to January 1, 2026. This allows claims to proceed even if the applicable statute of limitations has expired. To revive a claim, the plaintiff must allege that they were sexually assaulted and that one or more entities or persons are responsible for damages arising out of the assault. The bill also permits a cause of action against the person who committed the sexual assault to proceed. Public entities are exempt from these provisions and are not required to indemnify perpetrators of sexual assault. Claims can be filed between January 1, 2026, and December 31, 2027.
