Fast forward to just recently. The client shows up out of the blue, says she is completely dissatisfied and wants a refund immediately.
Now here's the question. Isn't there some sort of form of limitation on clients coming back years later? Would it depend on contracts signed? Etc etc... What are you thoughts?

Was your sister paid the full amount up front? Did she complete the job or only do the mockups?
If she only received a percentage upfront then i'd say stiff shit - your sister has material and labour costs. Even if the woman didn't like the work, she can't expect your sister to foot the bill.
