Where would my case be heard?
Wyoming women injured by a broken Paragard IUD have a 4-year statute of limitations from the device breakage date — one of the more generous periods in the Mountain West region. Wyoming's relatively small but geographically dispersed population includes women in Cheyenne, Casper, and Jackson who chose Paragard for its hormone-free, long-term contraceptive properties. The 4-year window means Wyoming women whose Paragard broke in 2022 may still have timely claims. Wyoming cases file into MDL 2974 in Atlanta.
Wyoming's 4-year general limitations period under Wyo. Stat. Ann. § 1-3-105(a)(iv)(C) gives Wyoming Paragard plaintiffs additional time compared to most states.
