Maryland's 3-year general statute of limitations under Md. Code, Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-101 gives Maryland Paragard plaintiffs additional time compared to 2-year states. Women with 2022 breakages may still be within the Maryland window. Federal MDL filings also involve the federal accrual standard from the 2025 MDL ruling.
