Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New Jersey
Statute of Limitations of NJ LAW
If there was a number of checks stolen from me and used , even though i did not commit any crime ,
and was out of state at the time.
but was in court 10 years after the crime was committed, they charged me with theft by deception , they lost
I am now trying to sue for malicious prosecution to the company / prosecutor / anyone else...
the question is can i use the bad checks statue of limitations , and also as each of the supposedly checks were under $200 each but totaling less than $2000 in total
the company did not show enough evidence that it wanted to settle in civil court
the company itself waited 4 years 6 months to contact the prosecutor and then the prosecutor didnt locate me until 5 years after that
the actual crime was committed by someone else 10 years before hand in total -
what else can i do ?

Re: Statute of Limitations of NJ LAW
It sounds as though these are all factors to support and help prove your case. However, what most people representing themselves do not know is that there are specific legal standards that usually need to be met, or at least should be, in order to win. This requires careful research and strategic planning. I recommend you see an attorney to decide on the best course of action.
