The purpose of this legislation, known as "Virginia's Law," is to provide victims of certain crimes, particularly sexual abuse and related offenses, with a civil avenue to seek justice. It aims to create a legal framework that allows victims to file civil lawsuits against their perpetrators and others who may have benefited from the crimes. Additionally, it eliminates the statute of limitations for these civil actions, meaning that victims can pursue their claims regardless of how much time has passed since the offense occurred.
