12-505. Effect of statute changing
limitation


A. An action barred by pre-existing law is not revived by amendment of such law
enlarging the time in which such action may be commenced.


B. If an action is not barred by pre-existing law, the time fixed in an amendment
of such law shall govern the limitation of the action.


C. If an amendment of pre-existing law shortens the time of limitation fixed in the
pre-existing law so that an action under pre-existing law would be barred when the
amendment takes effect, such action may be brought within one year from the time the new
law takes effect, and not afterward.
