I received a letter in the mail today that threatened legal action for a debt from over 5 years ago. The debt is from when I lived in Maryland. I have not lived there for the last 5 years. I've been living in North Dakota. The debt is for $9,000 and is the result of having been evicted when I was living with 2 other people who were also on the lease. I read that the statute of limitations for them to pursue legal action on a debt in Maryland is 3 years. It has definitely been longer than 3 years. What can I do to protect myself? Is it true they cannot pursue legal recourse over this debt?
If the MD stature is 3 years, then the statute has expired and they cannot sue you.
Hello, I live in a 30 unit condominium building with a shared garage. Someone hit my car in the garage. Unfortunately, nobody left a note and I can't tell who may have done this. Assuming there is nothing in the bylaws, can I sue my condominum association for the repairs which have been estimated at $500 (I would ask them to pay first, but I doubt they will agree)?
Thank you,
R. Peters
