Statute of Limitations

ORS § 30.905 provides a 2-year limitations period for product liability personal injury claims in Oregon. The discovery rule applies, tolling accrual until the plaintiff discovers or should discover the mesh-related injury and causation. Oregon also imposes an 8-year statute of ultimate repose running from the date the product was first purchased — claimants with mesh implants older than 8 years should consult an attorney immediately regarding tolling arguments. Oregon cases typically transfer to MDL 2846 in S.D. Ohio.
