Statute of Limitations
5-year statute of limitations for personal injury with discovery rule — the longest SOL among major talc litigation states. The generous filing window gives Missouri families significantly more time to discover the connection between talc use and cancer and to file claims.

Where to File in Missouri
Missouri talcum powder cases are primarily filed in the Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis, which has a well-established mass tort program and produced the landmark Ingham and Fox verdicts. Cases may also be filed in the circuit court of the county where the plaintiff resides. Missouri’s historically plaintiff-friendly judicial environment, combined with its 5-year SOL, makes it one of the most favorable jurisdictions for talcum powder plaintiffs. Federal cases from Missouri are typically consolidated into MDL 2738 in New Jersey.
