Anyone care to guess why? lol...


New York State's Adult Survivors Act (ASA), which was enacted on Nov. 24, 2022, amends the state's statute of limitations for civil claims alleging certain sexual offenses—which may include any unwanted sexual contact in the workplace—committed against individuals age 18 or older.

Individuals alleging "intentional or negligent acts or omissions by a person for physical, psychological, or other injury or condition suffered as a result of conduct which would constitute a sexual offense…or incest," as defined by New York penal law, may sue under the ASA, irrespective of when the offense occurred. The ASA's one-year lookback period allows those individuals to commence a civil action under this act as late as Nov. 24, 2023. Prior to the ASA, these allegations would have been time-barred.

So basically a woman who had a bad hookup 30 years ago can now file a civil claim where the only evidence is her version of what happened vs. what the accused remembers, if anything about what happened....

Once again the lawyers win.
 
Schumer, Coumo, AOC, this new NYC mayor, the Clintons, and dozens of other idiot liberals should begin preparing for this. Especially if all it takes are unsupported decades old allegations. This will backfire spectacularly. They will only have themselves to blame.

More lawsuits is a feature, not a bug for them.

Just look at the Scaffold Law that is still in effect in New York, it's basically an injury lawyer's wet dream.

Amazing the lengths they'll go to just to stop one man. He clearly scares the shit out of them. Makes choosing who to vote for easy...

This m

I wonder....Would this qualify as a bill of attainder since it was essentially enacted to allow a prosecution against Trump?

Should be quite a few 35-36 year old women coming forward with claims of a certain hair sniffer long ago.
