AZ HB2746

Allows civil actions for damages resulting from sexual assault committed against a minor to be filed within 12 years after the plaintiff reaches age 18, rather than earlier deadlines under existing law.

Permits civil actions based on failure to report child abuse or sexual assault (under A.R.S. § 13-3620) to be brought within the same 12-year window after the plaintiff turns 18.

Extends the statute of limitations by one additional year if a defendant is charged with a criminal complaint or indictment after the plaintiff reaches age 30, measured from the final disposition of the criminal proceedings.

Revives previously time-barred civil causes of action for sexual assault against minors or failures to report such abuse that occurred before the effective date of the act if those claims would now be allowable under this new statute of limitations.

Applies to lawsuits commenced on or after the effective date and to cases filed before the effective date that remain pending.
