Most likely (though we don't have all details). Debts just don't go away, and it'll still be on your credit report for years. The obvious solution is to make arrangements to pay your debt.

If you mean can they sue you if you owe money three years later, of course they can. After they win, they can garnishee your pay and bank account.
