Re: accident 6 years ago

The statute of limitations is 6 years. A person can make a claim that they

were injured within that time. to have a good case, the person filing the

suit would have to demonstrate a clear chain of treatment demonstrating that

the injury was sustained after the accident and that treatment has continued

consistently since that time.
