Citation: Doe v. Green, (2025) (citation pending).
Holding
On appeal in a case alleging sexual abuse during the minority of a minor plaintiff, the arguments that the Court of Appeals failed to consider the General Assembly’s intention to apply the 2021 accrual statute governing such claims retroactively, and the further claims that — even if the Court of Appeals was correct with regard to the retroactive application of that accrual statute — it erred in its determination that plaintiff was aware of her injuries and their causal connection to the alleged sexual abuse before she reached the age of majority, are rejected. The judgment of the Court of Appeals upholding the decision of the Circuit Court sustaining a plea in bar based on the statute of limitations is affirmed.
