The NEC lawsuit statute of limitations refers to the timeframe within which legal action can be initiated for cases involving Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) allegedly caused by baby formula. Statutes of limitations vary by jurisdiction and typically start from the date of the injury or diagnosis. It is crucial for potential plaintiffs to be aware of and adhere to these time limits, as failing to file within the prescribed period may result in the loss of their right to seek legal recourse.
