Statute of limitations
Statutes of limitations are laws passed by a legislative body in common law systems to set the maximum time after an event when legal proceedings may be initiated. When the period of time specified in a statute of limitations passes, a claim can no longer be filed. The intention of these laws is to facilitate resolution in a reasonable length of time. In civil law (legal system) systems, similar provisions are typically part of their civil or criminal codes and known collectively as ''periods of prescription''. The cause of action dictates the statute of limitations, which can be reduced (or extended) to ensure a fair trial. When a statute of limitations expires in a criminal case, the courts no longer have jurisdiction. Analysis of a statute of limitations includes the examination of any associated statute of repose, tolling provisions and exclusions.
==Applications==
Common law legal systems use a statute specifying the length of time within which a claimant or prosecutor must file a case. A case cannot begin after the period specified, and courts have no jurisdiction over cases filed after the statute of limitations has expired. However, once filed, cases do not need to be resolved within the period specified in the statute of limitations.
