It is unclear from your question whether you are asking what the statute of limitations is for the originator of the debt to sue for enforcement, or how long a consumer has to sue for an action like collection harassment.
If your question is related to the statute of limitations on collecting a debt then the answer is either 4 years or 5 years depending on the type of debt.
In Florida a consumer has 2 years to bring an action for collection harassment.
