Re: Bank deposit

If you signed a written contract with the bank -- and you almost certainly did -- then you have five years from the date of the breach (wrongdoing) NOT from when you originally signed the contract.

� 8.01-246.

However, it might be considered to be under the Uniform Commercial Code:

� 8.4-111. Statute of limitations.

http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+8.4-111

So if the deposit was made in 2006 and this is now 2006 + 3 = 2009, you had better hustle and file a lawsuit fast.

Give us a call if we can help.
