You will find in the C.S.A. (California Statues Annotated) that different law violations have different statues of limitations in which a case can be filed.  Typically they are one, two, three, five, seven, and ten year statutes of limitations while some cases have none at all.

Dear Friend,\n\nThe statute of limitations only starts to run once you know or should have known that there was a problem.  Let's say you had an operation in 2000, but only found out in 2004 that they'd botched the job.  Then your statute of limitations would start running from 2004, not 2000.\n\nHope that helps!\n\nYour Friend,\nFrancesois

Actually, it depends on your state. If you do a search for "statute of limitations by state", it will let you know what the limits are in your state. Many states have limits of only 4 or 5 years.\n\nRegardless, it will drop off of your credit report after 7 years from the date of last activity.\n\nKeep in mind that any legal information may need to be confirmed by a qualified attorney, of which I am not. Hope this helps.

A warrant expires only if it is allowed to. If a warrant is close to it's expiration, then the judge usually renews it. There is no statute for limitations on warrants. There are statutes for limitations on some crimes (not all) and the limitations are for the period of time between when the crime is committed and when the person is charged.\n\nOnce a person is charged with a crime, the statue of limitations does not apply.

Sorry Smokey but you are wrong. If you have a conviction, and I had one at 14 years of age, it stays on your record at the Criminal records office for life. It is not however referred to after 7 years as this comes under the spent convictions tab under the rehabilitation of offenders act so you do not have to disclose it. If however you appear in court at a later date after the 7 years they can bring it up in court. I know this to be 100% correct. Hope it helps.

Statute of limitations means that so much time must go by before the law can no longer arrest you for a certain crime.  If you are a convicted felon, you will always be a convicted felon.  It doesn't go away, and it doesn't get erased or expunged.\nA record of arrest can be expunged if you are found not guilty of a crime for which you have been accused.  Even then, a separate hearing is held to OK the expungement, and that will cost a few bucks in court cost, too.

The Statute of Limitations for a personal injury case is 2 years from the date of the accident.  If you do not either file a lawsuit or settle the case, any claims you may have had will be forever barred.  Do you live in Florida?  If so, you can contact Mr. Bruce Kaster, (352) 622-1600.  He is an excellent attorney.  I work for a law office in Texas and he is handling a case for us in Florida.

Are you referring to how the Statute of Limitations looks at it?\n\nThat is a grey area of the law.  Some states are calling it Written contracts, others consider it Oral or revolving contracts.  You will need to check with you local state law to see how it's applied.

There is a statute to limitations, and in most states it's 7 years. Meaning after 7 years it's too late to file a claim against you.

Have your Accountant and Attorney check T.C.A. § 28-3-110  \n\nIm almost positive that this is the Statute that Tennessee relies on for it's 10 year Statute of Limitations on Tax Liens.
