Question on moving state and SOL

[Anonymous]

What if a person P moves from state A to State B.
Let us assume that State A has SOL of 6 years and State B of 3 years.

The credit card has had the delinquency or last payment around 2 years back.

Now if the person moves to state B , will it be legally out of SOL in 3 years time or will he/she have to wait for 4 years anyway?


Now let us examine a reverse case for a person P2 moving from state B to State A . What happens for him?

I am just curious!!

too many variables to answer this.

You would actually need to list the states in question and what state the "contract" was originated in.

ok. Lets say state A is Missouri and state B is DC. What happens then/

And the contract (credit card) originated in Missouri. Got delinquent exactly 2 years back

Looks like the SOL in Missouri
Contracts: 5 years. Written contract for repayment of money or property, 10 years.

DC: Contracts: 3 years.

This would be something for an attorney to sort out-
My non-legal opinion is that it is 10 years until they were to sue you in DC.
