Section 213(2) requires an action to be commenced within six years.

In re the Estate of Friedgood · filed 1988-02-16(2)

We find that the court properly held the subject claim to be barred by the six-year Statute of Limitations (see, CPLR 213 [2]). The cause of action accrued on August 9, 1978, the day after which the note became due (see, UCC 3-122 [1] [a]). Since the claimant failed to commence the instant proceeding on or before August 9, 1984, his claim was properly dismissed as untimely.

Section 213(2) provides a six-year limitations period for the plaintiff’s action.

Inforna v. Sir Formal of Massapequa, Inc. · filed 1988-06-06(2)

While the appellant is correct in contending that the six-year Statute of Limitations applies to the plaintiff’s action (see, CPLR 213 [2]), the Supreme Court properly found that CPLR 206 (a) (1) also applies; hence, the plaintiff’s claim accrued not upon the date of execution of the escrow agreement, but long after that date when he first became aware of the facts which entitled him to demand compliance with the terms of that agreement (see, e.g., Bernstein v La Rue, 120 AD2d 476, lv dismissed 70 NY2d 746).

Section 213(1) provides a six-year limitations period, but it does not govern a proceeding to review Medicaid reimbursement rates when the four-month period applies.

Fahey v. Axelrod · filed 1988-06-16(1)

The assertion that the applicable Statute of Limitations is the six years provided for in CPLR 213 (1) is also rejected. Whether denominated a CPLR article 78 proceeding or an action for a declaratory judgment, the four-month Statute of Limitations will apply in a proceeding to review Medicaid reimbursement rates (see, Solnick v Whalen, 49 NY2d 224, 232-233).

Department of Housing Preservation & Development v. 849 St. Nicholas Equities · filed 1988-09-07

It is undisputed that the six-year Statute of Limitations (CPLR 213) applies to ERP expenses. ... The "statements of expenses” here fall into the latter category; the Statute of Limitations runs from the date of the underlying expenses, not the service of the "statement of expenses” ... These actions are barred to the extent that the expenses were incurred more than six years prior to the commencement of the actions.

Section 213(2) bars claims for child support arrears accruing more than six years before the claim is made.

Consentino v. Sweeney · filed 1988-10-31(2)

We do not agree, however, with the Supreme Court’s determination that the defendant waived his claim based on the applicable six-year Statute of Limitations merely because his opposing affirmation did not formally invoke the defense (see, CPLR 213 [2]; see also, Tauber v Lebow, 65 NY2d 596). Although the defendant did not raise the Statute of Limitations in his opposing papers, the plaintiffs application for arrears was not one in which the issues were framed through the use of formal pleadings, to which the rules governing the affirmative assertion of defenses would have application (cf., Matter of Augenblick v Town of Cortlandt, 66 NY2d 775, rearg denied 67 NY2d 647). In any event, the plaintiff was afforded ample opportunity to counter the Statute of Limitations argument, since the defense counsel raised the issue in. his closing comments after the hearing and subsequently reasserted the contention in his posttrial memorandum, to which the plaintiff replied without objecting to the inclusion of the issue in the case. We find that all claims for child support arrears accruing prior to June 14, 1979 are barred by the Statute of Limitations.

The parties agree as to the relevant statutes of limitations. Count One, a claim for breach of fiduciary duty that does not allege any fraudulent intent, is governed by the six year statute of limitations set forth in N.Y. C.P.L.R. (“CPLR”) § 213(1). ... Count Two, an action for a constructive trust, is one for which no limitation is specifically prescribed by law and thus, it is governed by the six year statute of limitations set forth in CPLR § 213(1). ... Consequently, for the purposes of this motion, the statute of limitations was tolled until the persons committing the wrongs no longer controlled BICL. ...

Jimenez v. Shippy Realty Corp. · filed 1994-11-07(1)

The court is, however, not persuaded that a judgment creditor’s failure to satisfy a judgment is a continuing wrong without a limitation period (cf., 1 Weinstein-KornMiller, op. cit., Til] 213.01, 213.04; 75 NY Jur 2d, Limitations and Laches, § 204); rather, the claim is one that springs from equitable jurisdiction and is, therefore, governed by the omnibus six-year Statute of Limitations (CPLR 213 [1]; 75 NY Jur 2d, op. cit., §§ 68-69).

Section 213 provides a six-year limitations period, with each periodic installment accruing separately when it becomes due.

Snyder v. Madera Broadcasting, Inc. · filed 1995-01-17

Under CPLR 213, plaintiffs had six years from the time their cause of action accrued to institute the present action. Where a claim is founded upon a written instrument for the repayment of money, and payment is made in periodic installments, the courts generally follow a rule of separate accrual whereby the statute of limitations begins to run anew on each installment as it becomes due. ... Because a separate limitations period began to run each time a monthly installment became due, plaintiffs may recover only those installments due and owing for no more than six years immediately preceding commencement of the present action. Any installment due in excess of this six-year period is time-barred.

Section 213 provides a six-year limitations period for actions on a promissory note, which may be extended by qualifying payments or acknowledgment of the debt.

Plaintiffs action to recover on a promissory note, which was not commenced until 1993, was dismissed by the IAS Court as time barred by the six-year Statute of Limitations (see, CPLR 213; UCC 3-122), because the demand note was executed in 1986. ... However, there was an issue of fact raised as to whether the periodic payments and borrowings against the loan, payments of interest, and repayments of principal took place within six years of the commencement of this action and might serve to extend the Statute of Limitations. Further, an issue of fact was raised as to whether defendant acknowledged her debt to plaintiff in a March 1992 financial statement, which would also extend the limitations period.
