Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

Re: bad check statutory limits

Thanks for your posting. The California Debt Collection Statute of Limitations, for any debt is as follows:

Open Acct. Reduced to writing 4 Years, Not in writing 2 Years. Written Contract 4 Years in California. - Domestic Judgments 10 Years and renewable at 10 Years - Foreign Judgments 10 Years commencing with judgment and debtors commencement of a California residence.

The Bad Check statute is California Civil Code Sec 1719-1720, which allows for certain penalties
