How long do I have to sue over debt collection on an account in Florida?

Answered for: Florida

a contract, obligation, or liability not founded on a written instrument, including an action for the sale and delivery of goods, wares, and merchandise, and on store accounts

The statute states 4 years for debt collection on an account. When that clock starts, and whether it can be paused, are separate questions this entry does not answer.

This answer is true in Florida and nowhere else on this site. Another jurisdiction is another answer, or an honest gap: see what has been read for Florida.
