Barnes v. A. H. Robins Co

In Barnes v. A. H. Robins Co. (Ind. 1985) 476 N.E.2d 84, the Indiana Supreme Court considered the two-year statute of limitations in the context of injuries caused by protracted exposure to a defendant's product, and stated: "A discovery type rule should be applied, and the statute of limitations in such causes commences to run from the date the plaintiff knew or should have discovered that she suffered an injury or impingement, and that it was caused by the product or act of another." (Id. at pp. 87-88.)
