Re: time line

The "timelines" you describe are generally called "statutes of limitation." How long you have to sue someone differs based upon the nature of the cause of action. Most actions can be brought within a year of the incident that gives rise to the cause of action. Some things, like written contracts can be brought up to five years after the last activity.

Good Luck
