What are the applicable statutes of limitations?

In Idaho, the applicable statutes of limitations for civil procedure depend on the type of case. Generally, the statue of limitations for most civil matters is 5 years from the date the injury or wrong occurred. For contract cases, the statute of limitations is 4 years from the date the contract was breached. For trespassing cases, the statute of limitations is 3 years from the date of the injury. For personal injury cases, the statute of limitations is 2 years from the date of the injury. In Idaho, most criminal cases, including felonies, have a statute of limitations of 5 years. However, there are some exceptions and longer statutes of limitations for certain criminal cases. Additionally, some statutes of limitations can be tolled or suspended, which means the time period does not begin to run until certain conditions are met. It is important to consult with an attorney to ensure that any applicable statutes of limitations are identified and the filing of your case is timely.
