| ||||||
21 | (Source: P.A. 97-897, eff. 1-1-13; 98-756, eff. 7-16-14; | ||||||
22 | 98-1013, eff. 1-1-15 .)
| ||||||
23 | Section 15. The Code of Civil Procedure is amended by | ||||||
24 | changing Section 13-225 as follows:
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (735 ILCS 5/13-225) | ||||||
2 | Sec. 13-225. Trafficking victims protection. (a) In | ||||||
3 | this Section, "human trafficking", "involuntary servitude", | ||||||
4 | "sex trade", and "victim of the sex trade" have the meanings | ||||||
5 | ascribed to them in Section 10 of the Trafficking Victims | ||||||
6 | Protection Act. | ||||||
7 | (b) Subject to both subsections (e) and (f) and | ||||||
8 | notwithstanding any other provision of law, an action under the | ||||||
9 | Trafficking Victims Protection Act must be commenced within 25 | ||||||
10 | 10 years of the date the limitation period begins to run under | ||||||
11 | subsection (d) or within 25 10 years of the date the plaintiff | ||||||
12 | discovers or through the use of reasonable diligence should | ||||||
13 | discover both (i) that the sex trade, involuntary servitude, or | ||||||
14 | human trafficking act occurred, and (ii) that the defendant | ||||||
15 | caused, was responsible for, or profited from the sex trade, | ||||||
16 | involuntary servitude, or human trafficking act. The fact that | ||||||
17 | the plaintiff discovers or through the use of reasonable | ||||||
18 | diligence should discover that the sex trade, involuntary | ||||||
19 | servitude, or human trafficking act occurred is not, by itself, | ||||||
20 | sufficient to start the discovery period under this subsection | ||||||
21 | (b). | ||||||
22 | (c) If the injury is caused by 2 or more acts that are part | ||||||
23 | of a continuing series of sex trade, involuntary servitude, or | ||||||
24 | human trafficking acts by the same defendant, then the | ||||||
25 | discovery period under subsection (b) shall be computed from | ||||||
26 | the date the person abused discovers or through the use of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | reasonable diligence should discover (i) that the last sex | ||||||
2 | trade, involuntary servitude, or human trafficking act in the | ||||||
3 | continuing series occurred, and (ii) that the defendant caused, | ||||||
4 | was responsible for, or profited from the series of sex trade, | ||||||
5 | involuntary servitude, or human trafficking acts. The fact that | ||||||
6 | the plaintiff discovers or through the use of reasonable | ||||||
7 | diligence should discover that the last sex trade, involuntary | ||||||
8 | servitude, or human trafficking act in the continuing series | ||||||
9 | occurred is not, by itself, sufficient to start the discovery | ||||||
10 | period under subsection (b). | ||||||
