Re: Recording Contracts-music
California Statute of limitations for written contracts for personal services, such as a Recording Contract, is 4 years. (from the time you knew or should have known of the breach). Note, however that many recording contracts include a notice & cure provision with which an aggrieved party must comply before breach will be deemed material.
Review the contract carefully, and consult an attorney as soon as possible, to make sure you don't miss the statute of limitations deadline.
