Deadlines for Arizona Actos Bladder Cancer LawsuitsArizona law sets deadlines for when lawsuits must be filed. These deadlines are called statutes of limitations.
An Arizona Actos lawsuit is a product liability claim. The Arizona statute of limitations governing product liability claims is relatively short: an Actos claim in Arizona must be brought within two years after the cause of action "accrues." A cause of action in Arizona "accrues" on the date a person discovers their injury, or on the date that they would have discovered their injury if they had exercised "reasonable diligence."
Please note: exactly when a cause of action accrues under Arizona law, and therefore also the deadline for bringing a claim for having developed bladder cancer as an Actos side effect, varies based on the specific facts of each person's case.
