Legal Question in Personal Injury in North Carolina
my son was shot at a club in 2001. He recieved a check from the state for 7,000.oo. We did not have a lawyer. I was so overwelmed at the time.
I didn't know that I could have gotten more. I didn't think that my son's injury would be a permanant one, he still can not walk. My question is what is the statue of limatations on this kind of case?

This is a rather complex question. You probably need to consult with a lawyer and provide him or her more information to answer the question. It is not clear what the basis of your son's claim would be, and against whom. It is also not clear why the state paid anything on the claim. The statute of limitations for negligence is generally three years, but the rule applies somewhat differently if the person injured is a minor (i.e. under eighteen). You probably need to consult with a lawyer to obtain a more thorough answer to this question.
