Statute of Limitations
Wisconsin has a 3-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims (Wis. Stat. § 893.54). The discovery rule applies for latent injury cases. Wisconsin uses modified comparative fault with a 51% bar (Wis. Stat. § 895.045). No absolute statute of repose for product liability in Wisconsin — older PowerPort implants may still be actionable. The Western District of Wisconsin (Madison) and Eastern District (Milwaukee) are the primary federal venues.
