Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.
02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
South Dakota's small population of approximately 900,000 supports an estimated 6,500 Dupixent patients since 2017, primarily through Sanford Health (Sioux Falls) and the limited dermatology specialist network serving the state. South Dakota lacks an NCI-designated cancer center, and patients requiring specialized CTCL evaluation are typically referred to the University of Minnesota Masonic Cancer Center in Minneapolis, the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, or Sanford's partner institutions. South Dakota's 3-year SOL provides adequate time, and the state's absence of compensatory damage caps is plaintiff-favorable. The District of South Dakota handles minimal pharmaceutical litigation, and most complex cases will benefit from MDL coordination.
South Dakota has a single federal judicial district — the District of South Dakota, with courthouses in Sioux Falls, Pierre, Rapid City, and Aberdeen. South Dakota follows a modified comparative fault system (51 percent bar) and does not cap compensatory damages in product liability cases. The state's small population means limited pharmaceutical litigation volume.
