Age 28 (10 years after majority at age 18)
Where to File in Indiana
Indiana's civil statute of limitations for childhood sexual abuse extends 10 years after the survivor turns 18, capped at age 28. Indiana does not have an active lookback window as of February 2026. The Archdiocese of Indianapolis and the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend have published credibly accused clergy lists. No Indiana diocese has filed for bankruptcy. Indiana survivors under age 28 should consult an attorney. Survivors older than 28 should ask about discovery rule tolling and whether Indiana courts have extended this to delayed psychological connection of abuse to documented harm.
