    Statute of limitation in quebec - repair claim/condo
    What is the statute of limitation in Quebec, canada for a repair claim ? Back in 2004 the syndicate of my condo complex repaired my door bell. 1 1/2 years later I received the invoice claiming that repair cost have to be paid on my own account and are not part of the common expenses. I refused payment as I never have been informed that any personal costs could be associated with it on which basis I could have decided whether even to proceed with the repair or not. Are they still able to sue me for what amount ?

    Well this would be a debt so they can sue you up to 7 years later I believe. But if your disputing it check your rental agrement when it comes to upkeep of the condo (what is paid by you and what is paid by them)

    Also, I have to ask... how much are they billing you? Principle is all well and good, but I've had doorbells replaced at spots I own for about $50. Fighting over that amount is just not worth my effort, especially since it may be that you are responsible for the cost under the CC&Rs, and you could wind up spending more money than the actual bill in the fight.
