Minnesota Actos Bladder Cancer Lawsuits
|
 A Minnesota Actos bladder cancer lawsuit allows a person who has developed bladder cancer after using Actos to seek justice. Bladder cancer is a side effect of Actos, and if it can be shown that you developed bladder cancer as a result of using Actos, Minnesota law allows you to sue its manufacturer, Takeda Pharmaceuticals.

Deadlines for Minnesota Actos Bladder Cancer LawsuitsMinnesota law sets deadlines for when lawsuits must be filed. These deadlines are called statutes of limitations. Minnesota residents are fortunate because the Minnesota statutes of limitations that apply to Actos lawsuits are significantly longer than those of most other states. However, Minnesota law does not delay commencement of the running of the limitations period when the person is unaware of their claim.
A Minnesota Actos lawsuit is brought as a product liability claim because, having failed to come with an adequate warning of the risks of bladder cancer and urethral cancer, Actos is a defective product. Minnesota product liability lawsuits can be brought under the following legal theories: strict liability, negligence, and breach of warranty.
Under Minnesota law, the statute of limitations for a negligence claim resulting in personal injury is six years from when the cause of action accrues. A strict liability claim and a breach-of-warranty claim both have a four-year statute of limitations in Minnesota. A wrongful death claim has a three-year statute of limitations.
The statute of limitations in Minnesota begins to run when a person sustains just "some" damages. This means that the deadline for filing a lawsuit can begin running even if a person is not aware of their damages or even that they have a claim. Thus, Minnesota residents should never delay seeking legal counsel if they believe they have been injured.
PLEASE NOTE: When the applicable Minnesota statutes of limitations begin to run for an individual's right to bring a claim for Actos side effects varies depending on the unique facts of that person's case.
