How long do I have to sue over specialty (instrument under seal, promissory note under seal) in Maryland?
Answered for: Maryland
(a) An action on one of the following specialties shall be filed within 12 years after the cause of action accrues, or within 12 years from the date of the death of the last to die of the principal debtor or creditor, whichever is sooner: (1) Promissory note or other instrument under seal; (2) Bond except a public officer's bond; (3) Judgment; (4) Recognizance; (5) Contract under seal; or (6) Any other specialty.
In Maryland you have 12 years to sue over specialty (instrument under seal, promissory note under seal). When that clock starts, and whether anything can pause it, are separate questions this entry does not answer.
This answer is true in Maryland and nowhere else on this site. Another jurisdiction is another answer, or an honest gap: see what has been read for Maryland.
