There is a limited period of time in which to bring a New York class action lawsuit against Reglan (metoclopramide). This legally prescribed time limit is referred to as a “statute of limitations”. This time limit to file a case prevents a claim from being filed after the designated time has elapsed. If you have been diagnosed or suffered from Reglan tardive dyskinesia symptoms you may lose the right to bring a claim if your case is not filed before the statutory deadline.
There are several factors that affect the statutory deadlines for filing your New York Reglan lawsuit including:
• The state where the lawsuit is filed
• The type of injury
• The age of the person bringing the claim
• The state where Reglan / metoclopramide was prescribed
