How long do I have to sue over contract (other than a writing for payment of money) in Missouri?
Answered for: Missouri
516.120. What actions within five years. — Within five years: (1) All actions upon contracts, obligations or liabilities, express or implied, except those mentioned in section 516.110 ... and except upon judgments or decrees of a court of record, and except where a different time is herein limited;
The statute states 5 years for contract (other than a writing for payment of money). When that clock starts, and whether it can be paused, are separate questions this entry does not answer.
