Idaho Personal Injury Statute of Limitations: 2026 Window, the ITCA 180-Day Notice, and Common Pitfalls
Idaho's general personal-injury statute of limitations is two years under Idaho Code 5-219. The traps: a 180-day Notice of Tort Claim under the Idaho Tort Claims Act (Idaho Code 6-906 for State, 6-906 / 6-908 for political subdivisions), modified comparative-fault with a 50% bar under Idaho Code 6-801, and a two-year medmal SOL under Idaho Code 5-219(4) with a short discovery rule.
