What is the deadline in Utah?

Utah Code § 78B-6-706 sets a 2-year product liability SOL. Utah's discovery rule tolls the SOL until the PowerPort patient knew or should have known about the catheter fracture and resultant injury. A lawyer can confirm yours.

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.
