Statute of Limitations Where Continuing Duty Allegedly Breached

The Second Department explained the application of the six-year “contract” statute of limitations where the duty alleged to have been breached is a continuing one:

“[W]here a duty imposed prior to a limitations period is a continuing one, the statute of limitations is not a defense to actions based on breaches of that duty occurring within the limitations period” …. Here, the alleged breach is of the defendant’s obligation to pay annual assessments to the plaintiff. Thus, a new breach occurred for statute of limitations purposes each year the defendant failed to make an allegedly required payment to the plaintiff …. Meadowbrook Farms Homeowners Assn, Inc v JZG Resources Inc, 2013 NY Slip Op 02381, 2011-089/10, Index No 839/10, 2nd Dept 4-10-13
