Is there time limit on civil suit to file?

I am sure there is a time limit, but I also think it varies with each suit, depending on the nature of the case...

The time limit is two years and yes, you can being a suit against them although get a really good atty. because they will make it look like you werent going to file suit until you found that you cannot get a job elsewhere. They should have fired this guy you were not the only one he was harrassing so, they made a wrong choice, in your suit you could ask that he be fired and that you get your job back. Also, if you still talk to anyone else he was doing this too I would suggest you trying to get them to go in with you on this lawsuit.  Just write down as much info as you can about what all he did, when, where etc. Good luck

If suit has been filed within the time frame (usually 2 years for most torts) then the statute of limitations does not apply.  You have been served have notice and must respond within the time stated on service of process or you will lose by default.  Check with your insurance you may have coverage for this.

THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS ON CIVIL CASES IS THREE YEARS.  REMEMBER AS IN ALL CASES IN THE U.S. COURT SYSTEM.  THE BURDEN OF PROOF LIES WITH THE ACCUSER.  YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO PROVE BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THAT THE EX AND HIS WIFE WERE RESPOSIBLE FOR YOUR TEMINATION FROM YOUR JOB.  NOT REALLY LIKELY THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO PROVE THAT.  THE BOSS PROBABLY WON'T WANT TO TESTIFY THAT THIS WAS THE REASON.

I would send a letter to the court and motion the court to dismiss with prejudice the charges for a lack of timely filing.  The prosecutor has time to file these charges.  I hope that you won't get yourself into this jam again.

First of all, the police can't stop you from filing a report or even suing him in civil court. As far as the complaint you can do 2 things. first take your complaint to internal a fairs and second file a complaint with the district attorneys office.

That isn't how statutes of limitations work.  Statutes of limitations are designed to prevent lawsuits from being brought too long after the alleged wrong has occurred.  For example, if someone assaults you, you can't sue them 20 years later, you have to sue them within the time limit established by the statute of limitations, which varies from state to state.  As you've already initiated a case and seem to have won, the statute of limitations doesn't apply.  \n\nI think what you're asking is if there's a statutorily defined time by which any monies you win in court must be paid by.  The answer is "Probably not", but the losing party will of course be bound to abide by whatever payment schedule is ordered by the court.  You can assume that the court order on this subject is going to comply with the law.  Judges aren't dumb.\n\nIf you're looking to get that money faster, there are companies out there that will buy that equity from you for a smaller lump sum up front.  I don't recommend it, as you wind up with less money than you would if you just waited it out, but you can get the money faster that way.

You can always have the attorney ask for a continuance to give him time to develop his case and for you to get some  help for yourself. It might help.

Well for one thing, you are not going to save any money by not showing up.  \n\nMost likely you have or will be fined guilty in absentia.  Now you have a judgment against you.  The can also file criminal charges on you as well if this was just civil court.\n\nBottom line, go to the court asap and try to schedule a new court date if it's not too late.

Unfortunately there is no appropriate method to file a law suit against a city. Just in the same way it is impossible to file a law suit against a carpet.\n\nIt is possible, however, to file a law suit against a council, local government, administrative group or any other body or individual.\n\nWhether or not a lawyer may be afraid to file such a law suit would largely depend on the nature of the case.

Since the government owes you and you dont have income then you can file at any time. you can go back as long as you need to\n\nIt is in your interest to file early however because you may qualify for refunds.\n\nufile on the web or ufile packages in stores will do it

The statue of limitations varies from place to place. Less than a year would most likely still be valid, particularly if the issue has not yet been resolved.

As usual with legal-related questions on Yahoo! Answers, far too little information exists to answer the question adequately.  The length of time varies for the forum, and for the type of wrongful discharge.  Each state has its own statute of limitations for bringing discharge actions, as well as the federal government. Also, different limitations exist for discrimination suits, and for express or implied contract breaches.  Contact your local EEOC office if you'd like specific information, and be prepared to present the specifics of your situation.\n\nEDIT: Remember, not all wrongful discharge claims fall under the EEOC, so the timelines may differ from the ones presented in the EEOC's information.

possibly\nyou need to hire a attorney contingent on the facts- \nif the lawyer feels a lawsuit is warranted they will take the case\n\nIt will take 3+ years to go to any form of litigation and the attorney will take as payment 1/3rd of the settlement minus the court, deposition fees, copying fees..etc\n\n\nGood Luck

Depends upon the state you are in.  Most states will let you file an injunction in family court, or something similar.
