How the Limitation Act works: The limitation period runs from the date the cause of action arose, not from the date of the incident. For a contract breach, the cause of action is the date of breach. For a debt, it is the last date on which the debt was due. For a cheque bounce, it is the dishonour date (not the issue date). The period is extended by 30 days under Section 5 where there is a sufficient cause - the application must be made at the time of filing, not after the period has expired without application.
Missed the deadline? A time-barred claim is not automatically dead - the 30-day condonation under Section 5 is the standard remedy.
