SB 495 - This act makes changes in the statute of limitations of tort actions against architects, engineers, and builders arising from improvements to real estate.
This act revises the starting date of the statute of
limitations to begin after "substantial completion". Current law
sets the starting date as "completion". The act also adds
economic loss to the list of damages restricted by the 10 year
time limit.
