02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
Rhode Island women who developed meningioma after Depo-Provera use have a 3-year products liability statute of limitations. Despite being the smallest state, Rhode Island has a concentrated population with accessible women's health services in Providence and surrounding areas. Rhode Island's discovery rule may provide additional time for women who only recently learned of the meningioma risk from the December 2025 FDA warning.
