Statute of Limitations
Maine: 6 years for personal injury (Me. Rev. Stat. Ann. tit. 14, § 752). Discovery rule applies — limitations begin when the plaintiff discovers or should have discovered the injury and its cause. Maine's 6-year SOL is the longest in the nation for personal injury.

Where to File in Maine
Maine gabapentin cases are filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine (Portland or Bangor) or in Maine Superior Court. Maine follows modified comparative fault with a 50% bar. The state does not cap compensatory damages in product liability cases. Maine's 6-year statute of limitations — the longest nationally — provides exceptional filing flexibility for gabapentin patients who take years to identify the drug-cognition connection.
