I am sorry to say that there is law of limitation which provides that a claim for recovery of money could be filed within three years of the date of loan unless the loan had been acknowledged during these three years then in such case three years would run from the date of acknowledgment in writing.
Your case is hopelessly time barred. Do not waste good money by going to court.
