When Does the Continuing Violation Doctrine Apply to Statute of Limitations?
Posted on: April 30, 2009 by: adminContrary to Polk’s contention, the “continuing violation” doctrine is inapplicable to these time-barred acts. Under that doctrine, if a defendant has engaged in a series of unlawful acts over an extended period, a plaintiff may be allowed to obtain relief for a time-barred act by linking it with an act that occurs within the limitations period. However, the continuing violation doctrine has been limited to discrimination cases. See Harmon v. Fred S. James & Co., 899 P.2d 258 (Colo. App. 1994). Polk v. Land, 5 P.3d 402 (Colo.App. 2000).
