Statute of Limitations
South Carolina Code § 15-3-530 provides a 3-year statute of limitations for product liability personal injury claims, with the discovery rule applying for latent injuries. South Carolina's statute of repose (S.C. Code § 15-73-30) bars claims more than 8 years after the date the product was first sold — a relatively short repose period. South Carolina follows modified comparative fault with a 51% bar.
