SCS/SB 524 - This act provides that in a claim against a health care provider for damages for malpractice or negligence when the defendant is served after the statute of limitations has expired, if such service is not made within one hundred eighty days of filing the petition then the court shall dismiss the action. Likewise, in an action for wrongful death when a defendant is served after the statute of limitations has expired and such service is not made within one hundred eighty days of the petition being filed then the court shall dismiss the action. This act is substantially similar to HB 808 (2017). JESSI BAKER
