This legal document page discusses the second step of the Landgraf analysis, a legal test to determine if a statute can be applied retroactively. It cites Supreme Court precedent from the Landgraf case to explain that a statute is impermissibly retroactive if it impairs rights, increases liability, or imposes new duties for past conduct, but clarifies that changes to procedural rules are generally not considered retroactive. The document also references the case of Vernon v. Cassadaga Valley Cent. School Dist. as an example of the court considering a new statute of limitations.
