“Who knows in this case, but it seems to me that what the New York legislature did by just arbitrarily opening up a new one-year window for all kinds of screwed-up women to make unsubstantiated, decades-old allegations against men they hate should be unconstitutional.”

The term “ex post facto” comes to mind.

It is my understanding that the change in law was mostly about adult survivors (male and female) of child sexual abuse from clergy.

At least that is what I remember from the discussions at the time.

As well as “bill of attainder”, because this law was clearly intended just to “get Trump.”
