Legal Question in Business Law in New York

Six years from the date of the check.

Mike.

My colleague is correct. However, though the statute of limitation is 6 years, New York State has a legal concept called 'laches' whereby a a claimant cannot just sleep on his or her rights because conduct will be a factor if the defendant asserts the affirmative defense of 'laches.' This means you should act as soon as practicable.

Feel free to contact my office at your earliest convenience.
