Re: statue of limitations
Being in jail does give you more time to file a lawsuit.
In general, the statute of limitations for breach of contract in Florida is 4 years for an oral contract and 5 years for a written contract.
There are exceptions to this general rule depending on the specific contract and the specific parties and the specific subject of the contract.
