Re: Statue of Limitations

There are varying statutes of limitations for all kinds of different cases. The general provisions are set forth in Chapter 16 of the Texas Civil Practices and Remedies Code. See:

Also, various Codes may have some variations for statutes of limitation, such a a suit on a promissory note. For example, see Section 3.118 of the Texas Business & Commerce Code at:

Re: Statue of Limitations

It depends on the type of complaint. 2 years personal injury, 1 year attorney malpractice, 2 years oral contract, 3 years fraud, 4 years written contract.

Re: Statue of Limitations

As noted by previous responders, statutes of limitations vary depending upon the applicable cause(s) of action alleged in the complaint. The California Code of Civil Procedure (CCP) at approximately 313 et seq. lays out the statute of limitations in california. Some of the more common examples are listed below:

written contract= 4 years from breach

oral contract= 2 years from breach

personal injury= 2 years (from jan.1 2003 on)

Good luck. I hope this information answered your questions.
