Legal Question
What is the statute of limitations on seeking compensation for injury after being struck in a crosswalk by a truck? Medical attention was refused because the victim was out on bond and wanted to avoid contact with law enforcement (however he did do a police report) He now has alot of shoulder pain and there is visible signs that something is not right. He is now doing prison time and wont be out til 09/2010. can he pursue this from custody? It happened late June/earlt July.

I understand that the statute of limitations, normally 2 years is "tolled" or stopped from running out when a person is in prison. You would have to check the laws carefully, as I am not sure if that tolling statute refers to the victim or the defendant that caused the accident. .
