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 has a 3-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims with the discovery rule. South Dakota courts apply Daubert under SDCL 19-19-702. South Dakota Zantac claimants with qualifying cancer diagnoses should consult national plaintiffs' counsel about Delaware Superior Court options. The federal Zantac MDL (No. 2924, S.D. Florida) was largely dismissed after Judge Robin Rosenberg's 2022 Daubert ruling excluded plaintiffs' causation experts.
