What does this legal document offer you?

• You have received mail from the debt collection office
• You shall pay money
• Although the order or invoice is more than 3 years old
• Then the claim is time-barred and you don’t have to pay anything

With this legal document you make it clear that the debt collection agency may not demand any money from you. Because the order or invoice is more than 3 years old. You have not received any mail from the court, but you have received mail from the debt collection office. This means that the claim is time-barred and you do not have to pay anything to the debt collection agency. The limitation period is not automatic. You must expressly invoke it. It is important that you do this in writing. For your legal position and – if necessary at a later date – for your lawyer’s arguments.
