Statute of Limitations

New Jersey Statutes 2A:14-2 provide a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury product liability claims with the discovery rule applying for latent injuries. New Jersey has no statute of repose for product liability — a significant advantage for patients with older implants. New Jersey's Bergen County Superior Court is the coordinating court for MCL 616 (Ethicon hernia mesh state cases).

2 years from discovery — no statute of repose
