    From the moment when the payment is to be made, the statute of limitations begins to run. Provided that you and the creditor have not agreed when to pay the debt, the statute of limitations begins to run from the date on which you have entered into a loan agreement. When the creditor is inactive for his claim, limitation is given. It shall be interrupted if the creditor has taken steps to collect the debt. The statute of limitations is interrupted: when you acknowledge that you have an obligation, whether express, partial or tacit; when a claim is brought against you; when he seeks enforcement; when a partial claim is made, the limitation period shall be interrupted only for the claim made. After breaking the old statute, a new one starts, which is always five years old no matter how old it was. In the case of public claims, the state has a statute of limitation of 10 years. No civil limitation is envisaged for civil claims. The court will not review the statute of limitations on whether you have expired if the creditor decides through the court to collect its claim. In order to benefit from a statute of limitations, you must explicitly refer to it. Otherwise you will be ordered to pay even if the statute of limitations has expired. Once you are sentenced, a new statute of limitations begins. After payment of the debt expired at your discretion, whether you knew or did not know, your money will not be refunded. However, you are paying a real existing debt. After the expiration of the limitation period, the creditor cannot receive your payment by compulsory payment.
