Re: statue of limitation1
Max 8 years after turning 18. You're still within time to sue, apparently. In order to bring suit successfully, you need to be able to corroborate and prove your allegations through credible witnesses, documents and circumstantial evidence, you need to be able to demonstrate your damages and harm, and the defendant[s] has to be someone who has something to collect a judgment or settlement from. If he has nothing, that's what you'll recover. If you still think you have a case worth pursuing, and you're serious about doing so, feel free to contact me.
