In re Orlando A. Da Cruz

Summary

The Supreme Court affirmed the Superior Court’s summary‑judgment granting the intervenor’s motion, holding that the ten‑year statute of limitations in G.L. 1956 § 9‑1‑13(a) applies to the plaintiff’s claim because filing a complaint is a civil action, and the plaintiff’s argument that the statute did not apply was waived because it was not raised in the lower court.
