The time limit for filing a police misconduct lawsuit depends on your case details. For instance, if you were assaulted by a police officer in NYC, you have only one year to sue the city of New York for damages; this deadline is shorter than usual in personal injury cases.
You’ll have three years to file a lawsuit for civil rights violations under Section 1983.
