Statute of Limitations
North Dakota imposes a 6-year statute of limitations for tort claims (N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16), one of the longest in the nation. The discovery rule applies. North Dakota courts apply Daubert reliability standards for expert testimony. North Dakota's 6-year SOL is among the most favorable for Zantac claimants with older cancer diagnoses.
