In California, the applicable discovery rule statute of limitations for filing a claim against a city is typically governed by the California Government Code § 911.2, which requires that a claim be filed within six months of the date of the incident. However, if the injury was not discovered right away, the statute allows for a one-year period from the date the injury was discovered, or could have been reasonably discovered, to file a claim. It's essential to follow proper procedures, including the timely filing of a claim with the city, to preserve the right to pursue legal action.
