Legal Interest Rate?

I found this on a website:
 

In researching your debts, statute's and credit rating it is often necessary to know the "collection laws" of a particular state. Because state laws vary, knowing the right collection law for your state or your creditors state is essential. Here, you can find bad check laws, state collection requirements, statutes of limitations for both debts  and judgements, garnishments, plus license and bonding information for collection agents. Totally invaluable! This information is provided at commercialbar.com and can be used in conjunction with our information on defending the statute of limitation.
