Maryland passes bill limiting liability in sexual abuse claims amid potential $3B-$4B liability.
Maryland lawmakers have passed a bill to limit liabilities from sexual abuse claims at state and private institutions, following thousands of allegations, particularly in youth detention centers.
The bill, which now goes to Governor Wes Moore, lowers settlement caps and restricts claimants to a single payment per case instead of multiple payments for each incident of abuse.
This move follows Maryland eliminating the statute of limitations for child sexual abuse claims two years ago, and the state now faces an estimated $3 billion to $4 billion in potential liability.
