Is there a statute of limitations for suing for Constitutional rights violatations?
There are usually statutes of limitations for any legal action and whether or not there is a limitation and how long the limitation is depends on the state and the particular injury to the party. Also, you must show actual harm caused by the government to prevail, not simply that the government failed to protect your right. Edit: According to federal law and case law the state in which the injury occured shall provide the statute of limitations, even if the suit is filed in federal court.
