The civil statute of limitations for Product liability ranges from 1 to 10 years across U.S. states
For Product liability, the general civil statute of limitations is 1–10 years (median 2) across 51 states. A DERIVED min/max/median over each state's RECORDED statutory period (occurred=false, adjudged=false — an in-house cross-state summary; the per-state statutes + citations are in itemListElement, each verifiable at its statute URL). It is NOT a personal deadline: the discovery rule, tolling (minors/disability/defendant absence), repose limits, government-defendant notice rules, and the exact sub-claim can make a real deadline shorter or longer — and missing a statute of limitations usually bars the claim permanently.
occurred=FALSE (a calculation, not an event) and adjudged=FALSE (a transparent in-house formula, not an authority's verdict — no external adjudicator). Reproduce it from its named inputs; falsified if the formula or inputs are wrong. Lower warrant than the adjudged figures above.
This is not legal advice or a personal deadline
Which statute applies to a specific claim, and when the clock started, is fact-specific legal judgment. Anyone with a potential product liability claim near a deadline should consult a licensed attorney or legal aid immediately rather than rely on this reference.
Justice Atlas L5 boundary (statutory text ≠ a personal deadline)
a cross-state statutory reference, not a personal deadline or advice
occurred=FALSE (a framing, not an event) and adjudged=FALSE (an in-house reading, not an authority's verdict) — the LOWEST-warrant claim here. A flat representation would render this identically to the official facts; the four-status does not.
