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.
