Statute of Limitations
Tennessee Code Annotated § 28-3-104 provides a 1-year statute of limitations for personal injury, including product liability claims. The discovery rule applies. Tennessee's statute of repose (T.C.A. § 29-28-103) bars claims more than 10 years after the product's first sale. The 1-year SOL is among the shortest in the nation and requires immediate action when complications are identified.
1 year from discovery — act immediately; 10-year statute of repose
