Shortened Statute of Limitations on FCRA Claims

The statute of limitations for a charge under the Florida Civil Rights Act of 1992 (FCRA) has shortened to one year vs. four years previously. Individuals now have one year to file a civil action in circumstances where the Florida Commission on Human Relations is unable to conciliate a charge or make a reasonable cause determination within 180 days of the charge’s filing.
