Depending on the type of case or procedure, New York's statutes of limitations generally range from one (1) year to six (6) years. The point at which the clock starts ticking is typically the date of the incident or discovery of a wrong.
Under the CCFA: Once the statute of limitations has expired, it can't be revived or extended if you make a payment or affirm that you owe a debt. This wasn't the case prior to the law being passed. Debt collectors, including original creditors, must provide notice to the court when filing such a lawsuit.
Can a collection agency open an old debt as new? A collection agency can't report an old debt as new. If your creditor sells an old debt to an agency, the timeline simply continues from where it left off.
This legal time limit, which varies by state, sets a deadline for creditors to sue you for unpaid debts. In most states, the statute of limitations for collecting on credit card debt is between three and 10 years, but a few states allow for longer periods, extending up to 15 years.
Keep in mind that making a partial payment or acknowledging you owe an old debt, even after the statute of limitations expired, may restart the time period.
