Statute of limitations (debt)

The time limit, set by state law, during which a creditor or collector can sue to recover a debt. Once it expires the debt is "time-barred" and cannot be enforced in court, though it may still appear on a credit report and a collector may still ask you to pay. Making a payment or acknowledging the debt can sometimes restart the clock.
