House Bill Giving Childhood Sex Abuse Victims More Time To Sue Passes In The Senate
HB 1090, discussed in this Denver Post article and this post, passed its third reading in the Senate today. HB 1090 would allow victims of childhood sex abuse more time to file lawsuits against private institutions that knew or were on notice of the "propensity of an employee, volunteer, representative, agent, or subordinate of the employer" for engaging in unlawful sexual conduct and who failed to take reasonable steps or institute reasonable safeguards to prevent any such conduct.
The Governor has not given any indication as to whether he will sign or veto the bill. If the bill passes, we will be providing guidance on how to safeguard your association from these types of claims.
