Statute of Limitations

2 years from BIA-ALCL diagnosis or from discovery of BIOCELL connection
Where to File in Arizona
Arizona plaintiffs with Allergan BIOCELL claims file in MDL 2921 in the District of New Jersey. Arizona state court filings in Maricopa County Superior Court are available for claims outside federal court. Arizona applies the discovery rule to its 2-year personal injury statute (A.R.S. § 12-542). Phoenix and Scottsdale rank among the highest per-capita cosmetic surgery markets in the Mountain West — a significant population of women in the Phoenix metro area received Natrelle 410 implants from plastic surgeons operating in the Scottsdale corridor during the 2005–2019 BIOCELL era. BIA-ALCL diagnoses in Arizona from 2024 onward are securely within the limitations window.
