Montana HB301 revises statutes of limitations for real property injury claims, defining when claims accrue and must be filed.

Montana HB301 amends statutes of limitations for real property injury claims, specifying that a claim or cause of action accrues when all elements of the claim exist, the right to maintain action is complete, and jurisdiction is authorized. The period of limitation begins when the claim or cause of action accrues, and lack of knowledge does not postpone this period. The bill also addresses situations where facts constituting the claim are concealed or the defendant has taken action to prevent discovery.
