- Criminal Charges or Traffic Tickets: If the person that injured you has been charged with a crime or was given a traffic citation as a result of the negligent event that caused your injury, the Statute of Limitations may be tolled (extended) until two years following the date that the ticket or criminal charge is resolved.
- The Victim is a Minor: When the injured person is under the age of 18, the statute of limitations can be extended until two years beyond his or her 18th birthday.
- Delay in Discovery: Although this comes up most often in medical malpractice, in some limited cases the SOL can be extended and begin to run once the injury has been discovered.
