SB 590 - This act modifies the offenses included in the definition of "childhood sexual abuse" for civil actions to recover damages from injury or illness caused by childhood sexual abuse. The act shall apply to any action commenced on or after August 28, 2025, including those that would have been barred by the application of the statute of limitations prior to August 28, 2025. This act also provides that a nondisclosure agreement by any party to a childhood sexual abuse action shall not be judicially enforceable in a dispute involving childhood sexual abuse allegations or claims and shall be void.
This act is similar to a provision in SB 1063 (2024) and in SB 1092 (2024).
