Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A statute of limitations sets a time limit for filing a lawsuit. If the time limit has expired, the plaintiff cannot file a suit, regardless of the strength of their case. Therefore, even if Sara has a strong case against Tom, she cannot file a suit against him after the expiration of the time allowed for filing under the statute of limitations. The doctrine of laches, an equitable maxim, refers to an unreasonable delay in seeking a remedy, and it may also prevent Sara from filing a suit, but it is not the best answer to this question. Similarly, the remedy at law is also not the best answer, as it refers to a legal remedy that a plaintiff may seek, rather than a limitation on their ability to file a suit.
