Description
Plaintiff K.G. appeals from an order dismissing her petition in which she alleged that her father subjected her to offensive sexual touching as a child. The trial court concluded that the tort alleged was an action for battery subject to a two-year statute of limitations, § 516.140, that had expired. The trial court further concluded that because statutes extending the limitation of actions involving child sexual abuse, §§ 516.371 and 537.046, became effective after the battery limitations period had expired, those statutes did not revive the battery cause of action. Following opinion by the Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District, this Court granted transfer. The judgment is affirmed.
