Re: statue of limitations

There is no statute of limitations on collection, or attempts to collect. There is also no statute of limitations on filing a lawsuit to collect, in most jurisdictions. A debtor may be able to defend a lawsuit based on the statute of limitations, which may be four years or longer, depending on the specific facts.
