Statute of limitations — Colorado
Colorado Revised Statutes § 13-80-102 provides a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims including toxic exposure product liability. The discovery rule applies — the limitations period begins when the plaintiff knows or reasonably should have known of the cancer and its connection to artificial turf exposure. Colorado has a general 6-year statute of repose under § 13-80-102(1)(a) that may limit some older exposure claims.

Where to File in Colorado
Colorado state court claims may proceed in Denver District Court, Arapahoe County, Jefferson County, or other district courts along the Front Range. Colorado applies the Shreck standard for expert testimony (a modified Daubert approach). Colorado's high altitude creates approximately 25% more UV radiation exposure than sea-level locations, accelerating crumb rubber photodegradation and potentially increasing carcinogenic chemical release. The Denver metro area's rapid population growth has driven extensive synthetic turf installations for expanding youth sports programs.
