What is the statute of limitations for an action brought by a plaintiff who sustained a long-term disability as a result of a motor vehicle accident?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Tostado v. Rehabbers Fin., Inc., B240628 (Cal. App. 2013):
Generally, a limitations period begins to run "'upon the occurrence of the last fact essential to the cause of action.'" (DeRose v. Carswell (1987) 196 Cal.App.3d 1011, 1017.) However, where a tort involves a continuing wrong, the statute of limitations does not begin to run until the date of the last injury or when the tortious acts cease. (Aryeh v. Canon Business Solutions, Inc. (2013) 55 Cal.4th 1185, 1192.)
