Statute of Limitations
Hawaii: 2 years from discovery (Haw. Rev. Stat. § 657-7)
2 years from BIA-ALCL diagnosis or discovery of BIOCELL injury connection
Filing Venue
Where to File in Hawaii
Hawaii plaintiffs with Allergan BIOCELL claims file in MDL 2921 in the District of New Jersey. Hawaii has a 2-year personal injury statute under Haw. Rev. Stat. § 657-7, applying from the discovery date. Honolulu's plastic surgery market placed BIOCELL products during the 2005–2019 recall period. Women in Hawaii with BIA-ALCL diagnoses or recalled BIOCELL implants can participate in MDL 2921 through our national practice without requiring Hawaii state court filings or travel to New Jersey for most case activities.
