When Are Sexual Abuse Claims Time-Barred?

In April 2021, Governor Jared Polis signed a law that abolished the statute of limitations for civil claims related to childhood sexual abuse. This means that victims now have the opportunity to bring a civil lawsuit at any time, regardless of how much time has passed since the abuse occurred.

Proving Sexual Abuse in Civil Court

To succeed in a sexual abuse civil claim in Colorado, you typically need to prove several elements. These elements may vary depending on the specific circumstances of the case, but generally, the following elements are crucial:

1. Duty of Care: You must establish that the defendant owed you a duty of care. In cases of sexual abuse, this often involves showing that the defendant had a responsibility to protect you from harm, such as a duty of care owed by a caregiver, teacher, clergy member, or other authority figure.
2. Breach of Duty: You need to demonstrate that the defendant breached their duty of care. In cases of sexual abuse, this could involve actions such as inappropriate touching, sexual assault, manipulation, or exploitation.
3. Causation: You must prove that the defendant's breach of duty directly caused your harm. This means establishing a direct link between the defendant's actions and the injuries or damages you suffered as a result of the abuse.
4. Damages: You need to provide evidence of the damages you suffered as a result of the abuse. This can include physical injuries, emotional trauma, psychological harm, medical expenses, therapy costs, loss of income, and other related losses.

You must present sufficient evidence to support your claims. This may include witness testimony, medical records, psychological evaluations, expert testimony, documentation of the abuse, and any other relevant evidence that can help substantiate your case.
