Is there a statute of limits on slander?
 

Just curious if there is one on civil cases? Anyone have any experience?

Man if I could only go back in time and get that law degree...

*sighs*

1 to 2 years, depending.

What you up to bitch?

I heard a rumour that Jayman shaves.. say it aint so. :Graucho :winkwink:

good to know.. :thumbsup

murder is the only thing that does not have a statute of limitations

this may well be one of the dumbest questions ever by someone not oracle porn

EG, what you hear is correct ;)

Headless, nothing new Captain Observo.

Thanks Amp, thatll be perfection.

Who says I'm not?

DP, you amaze me to this day.

It all depends on where you live, as the "statute" is obviously set by lawmakers. Best to talk to a lawyer.

For instance in Ontario, Canada, there's a piece of legislation for defamation that has a 6-week notice period for a broadcast:

(yes, I know there's a difference between libel and slander....although in this day and age, things are more blurred, and it's simpler to call it all defamation)
