Understanding The Statute Of Limitations For Your Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility Lawsuit
The Statute of Limitations for any lawsuit is the time limit for the victim to file their case with the court system. If the case is not filed within that time limit, it is typically denied because the Statute of limitations has expired. In most instances, the victim will have lost their right to seek compensation and justice because this time limit is strictly enforced.
Victims who were sexually assaulted at Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility or those who were sexually abused have until the age of 40 to file a lawsuit against the facility. This is considered ample time to take action as victims have 22 years, from age 18 to 40, to contact a Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility sexual molestation lawyer and pursue a lawsuit. Please reach out to our office today to request a free consultation with one of our Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility sexual abuse lawyers or a Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility sexual assault lawyer to ensure you have not missed the window to file your claim. Know that the information and consultation are free, and you are not obligated to hire our firm or take legal action.
Are There Exceptions To The Statute Of Limitations?
The only time victims of childhood sexual abuse or assault can file a lawsuit after the age of 40 is when they only recently discovered their abuse or assault. It could sound questionable to think that a victim was unaware of their childhood sexual abuse or assault. But it can happen in a very limited number of cases where the young victim repressed the memories of their traumatic assault or abuse.
The five-year discovery period is granted to victims who are over the age of 40 when they make a breakthrough and discover that they were sexually abused or assaulted as minors. In most instances, this discovery is made during therapy. The victim rediscovers that they were abused or assaulted and then hid the memories in their subconscious because they could not process these adult-like actions. Once the discovery is made, the victim has the full five years to work with a skilled lawyer who can sue Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility for the harm and losses related to the violations they suffered.
If you have recently discovered your childhood sexual abuse or Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility assault, please reach out to Normandie Law Firm today. Our Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility abuse lawyers and childhood sexual assault lawyers are here to ensure you get the compensation and justice that is owed to you.
Were You Sexually Abused At Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility?
There can be a great deal of confusion when you begin to discuss childhood sexual abuse with minors or adults. While some of the acts considered to be sexual abuse are commonly recognized, others are less well understood. Most know that if a female reports someone groping her breasts, she is sexually abused. However, many people are unaware that they could be the victim of sexual abuse even when there was no physical contact between them or their abuser. The most common acts of sexual abuse include but are not limited to:
- A person at the facility exposing their private areas to you
- Another minor, facility employee, medical care provider, security or probation officer making lewd or sexually explicate comments to you
- Being forced to masturbate while someone is watching or made to watch another minor or adult masturbate
- Being forced to participate in kissing of a sexual nature
- An adult or minor who is fondling, grouping, or touching private parts of your body or being forced to act in this manner by your abuser
- Any unwanted or inappropriate touching or physical contact
If you endured any of these acts, please reach out to the staff at Normandie Law Firm today to request a free consultation with a skilled Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility sex abuse attorney to review the facts and legal merit of your case.
What Is Considered Sexual Assault?
The level of brutality and harm accompanying the sexual component of sexual assault is typically extreme compared to sexual abuse. Victims can sustain severe physical injuries that result in a lifetime of pain and limitations. Other events can cause the victim to suffer irreparable damage to sexual organs or an unwanted pregnancy. Sadly, many times, the staff at Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility was unhelpful in preventing further sexual abuse or providing the care these victims needed to overcome their injuries and trauma. Acts typically classified as sexual assault include:
- Rape
- Sodomy
- Oral copulation
- Any sexual penetration other than intercourse
- Forcing the victim to participate in pornography or prostitution
If these are the acts you were subjected to at Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility, don’t hesitate to get in touch with the sexual assault attorneys at Normandie Law Firm to evaluate your claim and the legal merit of your case to hold the facility accountable for your injuries and losses.
How Can A Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility Sexual Abuse Class Action Lawsuit Be Worth $50,000,000?
It sounds unbelievable for a single Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility sexual abuse class action lawsuit to result in $50,000,000 in compensation. However, there are Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility sexual abuse class action cases that have settled for or had compensation awarded that is nearly $100,000,000. But these astronomical amounts make much more sense when understanding how class action cases work.
A class action lawsuit represents many victims who suffered the same losses or harm at the hands of an individual or entity. But instead of each victim filing their own lawsuit to seek justice and compensation, they elect to join a class action case. These cases can represent a dozen, one hundred, or more victims in a single legal matter.
The settlement or compensation awarded for the case is then shared among all the plaintiffs listed for the case. So, each victim will not receive the full $50M or $100M in compensation. Other differences victims should understand before joining a class action are that the cases typically take three to five years to reach a resolution. But many victims appreciate that they have other victims in the case with them, and their examples of sexual abuse or assault help to provide the case for everyone more than just one person telling their experiences at Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility.
If you are interested in knowing more about Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility sexual abuse class action lawsuits, please get in touch with Normandie Law Firm at your earliest convenience. Our team will provide you with general information and schedule a free consultation with a seasoned Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility class action lawsuit attorney to review your case. But please do not wait to make this inquiry. The Statute of Limitations could still apply and limit your time to join a class action and secure the justice you deserve.

What Is The Average Value Of A Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility Sexual Assault Lawsuit?
