do you mean to sue someone on a particular issue or do you mean once you sued someone, how long is the judgement good for to collect on it ?

The SOL (Statue of Limitations) simply determines how long a creditor can:\n1. Report the debt to a Credit Reporting Agency.\n2. Limits what legal actions can be taken to collect the   debt.\n\nJust because the SOL has passed, it doesn't mean that a creditor cannot attempt to collect the debt. You are legally responsible for that debt until it's paid. \nThe thing about the SOL is that it can be renewed. If a payment is applied to an account that is past the SOL (even one penny) it automatically renews the SOL and can once again be reported. That is why it is important to note all your payments as to which accounts they are for. If the SOL is renewed, they may again take legal action on the account. The SOL doesn't limit what legal action has already been taken (for example; A lein placed on a house, it is there until the lein is paid or you file a petition to avoid a lein with the court).\n-If you have any further questions email me

Actually, all states have statutes of limitations, but those do not apply in your case. A statute of limitations is the time required, after an offense, in which proceedings must be instituted. Most states have eliminated statutes of limitations only for the most severe offenses, such as first degree murder.\nBecause your proceedings have already occurred, any statute of limitations doesn't apply. What you need to be concerned with is the fact that you apparently haven't fulfilled the judgment against you. Do you have any idea that the state of California is looking for you? If so, they can easily have their judgment enforced in another state. If not, the case may simply have been idled long enough that no one is working to seek enforcement. You may be able to call the clerk of the court in which the judgment was rendered to find out the status of the case. It is public information. Since the case is so old, they may not be able to give you the information over the phone, and you may have to go there in person. Even if you have to go there, the clerk's office personnel are not in the position, even if they wanted to, to attempt to find out who you are and to enforce the judgment.

Cal. Code of Civ. Proc. 340.5.  In an action for injury or death against a health care provider based upon such person's alleged professional negligence, the time for the commencement of action shall be three years after the date of injury or one year after the plaintiff discovers, or through the use of reasonable diligence should have discovered, the injury, whichever occurs first.  In no event shall the time for commencement of legal action exceed three years unless tolled for any of the following:  (1) upon proof of fraud, (2) intentional concealment, or (3) the presence of a foreign body, which has no therapeutic or diagnostic purpose or effect, in the person of the injured person.  Actions by a minor shall be commenced within three years from the date of the alleged wrongful act except that actions by a minor under the full age of six years shall be commenced within three years or prior to his eighth birthday whichever provides a longer period.  Such time limitation shall be tolled for minors for any period during which parent or guardian and defendant's insurer or health care provider have committed fraud or collusion in the failure to bring an action on behalf of the injured minor for professional negligence.\n----\n\nThat's the statute. However, as to reserving the right to file, the unanswered question is why do you think you may lose your right? Since you present no facts on the issue, I can't comment further.

On criminal case, the prosecutor can file charges until it reaches its statue of limitation.  For high felonies, like murder, there is no statue of limitation.  They have at least two year to file charges for minor crimes.  It is longer for more serious violations.

Not a "done deal" until the Decree is filed and 30 days has passed from that time. You have 30 days to appeal to the Supreme Court (of your State) from the filing of the final Order or Decree. If you want a New Trial (usually what is done first) that must be filed within 10 days. Most of the time the Decree is done within 30 days after the Court ruling or agreement of the parties.

The only thing that actually comes to mind is the potential malpractice of your attorney.  Your attorney probably should have known what party to sue on your behalf.  I would start with filing a grievance with the bar association in your state, and find an attorney that will handle a malpractice case. Generally, once the SOL has passed, you're out.  Check to see if the statute of limitations is that 2 years your think it is for an insurance claim (don't assume that it is if it came from the attorney that filed against the wrong party).

The statute of limitations for each state is readilly available on the internet with a simple search.\n\nAttory Generals are not in the business of giving individuals legal advice.\n\nSo what is your problem here?  If the \nSOL has run out, you need to go back to court and get the judgement appealed and overturned.  Until that time the creditor can continue to garnish your wages.

Statutes of limitation apply to both civil and criminal causes of action. For instance if you slip on your neighbors driveway you have only a few years to bring suit. That would be a tort claim not a criminal action.\n\nIt looks like you are looking at a six year statute of limitation for the company who has your loan to bring suit starting from the time you enter default. see http//www.cardreport.com/laws/statute-of-limitations.html

Absolutely. But, the law limits the amount of time you have to file your case. Different areas have different laws. I would suggest you ask an attorney.

I assume you are referring to the lease.  The statute of limitations would be based on your state law.  Usually, statues of limitations for contracts run about four to six years, although some have gotten rid of limitations altogether for renters.

Lexis Nexis is available on a credit card basis.  Both Lexis and Westlaw are used as online legal resources by attorneys.  However, you might also consider Findlaw.com, which is free.  Click on cases and codes, then Hawaii- - it should take you here:  http://www.capitol.hawaii.gov/site1/docs/docs.asp?press1=docs\n\nA word of caution, the answers aren't always easy to find just by reading the code. In Ohio, for example, the penalties are often in the .99 section (4511.19 in OVI, the penalty is in 4511.99, but several other sections apply as well).\n\nI will tell you that, if you don't live in Hawaii, I doubt you will be extradited for simple traffic citations. However, if Hawaii is a compact state, your home state may suspend your driver's license.

If she is afraid to fly, she can't leave Hawaii.  Call the police station there to file.  Just to be safe, call the police station in Georgia also, but my guess is she's still in Hawaii.

In March 1959, both houses of Congress passed the Admission Act and U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed it into law. (The act excluded Palmyra Atoll, part of the Kingdom and Territory of Hawaiʻi, from the new state.) On June 27 of that year, a plebiscite was held asking residents of Hawaiʻi to vote on accepting the statehood bill. Hawaiʻi voted 17 to 1 to accept. On August 21, church bells throughout Honolulu were rung upon the proclamation that Hawaiʻi was the 50th state of the Union.\n\nAfter statehood, Hawaiʻi quickly became a modern state with a construction boom and rapidly growing economy. The Hawaiʻi Republican Party, which was strongly supported by the plantation owners, was voted out of office. In its place, the Democratic Party of Hawaiʻi dominated state politics for forty years. The state also worked toward restoring the native Hawaiian culture. The Hawaiʻi State Constitutional Convention of 1978 heralded what some called a Hawaiian renaissance. Its delegates created programs that sought to revive the indigenous Hawaiian language and culture. In addition, they sought to promote native control over Hawaiian issues by creating the Office of Hawaiian Affairs.
