Re: law suit

10 years but it can be renewed over and over. Your personal financial situation determines how easy it is to collect, as well as the persistence of the collector.

Re: law suit

The judgment is good for 10 years. It can be renewed, however.

How hard is it to collect? If you work or have assets, not that hard.

Re: law suit
