Where would my case be heard?
South Dakota women injured by a broken Paragard IUD have a 3-year statute of limitations from the device breakage date. South Dakota plaintiffs file their federal Paragard claims into MDL 2974 in the Northern District of Georgia. South Dakota women whose device broke during removal and who suffered a documented injury should consult a Paragard attorney to assess whether the 3-year window remains open for their specific breakage date.
South Dakota's 3-year personal injury limitations period under SDCL § 15-2-14 gives South Dakota Paragard plaintiffs additional time compared to 2-year states. South Dakota cases file into MDL 2974 in Atlanta.
