Statute of Limitations for Fraud Applies to Forgery​

The Second Department noted that the statute of limitations provisions for fraud are applied to forgery:

Contrary to the plaintiff’s contention, the statute of limitations for a fraud cause of action applies to a cause of action alleging forgery … .The statute of limitations for a fraud-based cause of action requires that the action be commenced within six years after the allegedly fraudulent act or within two years after discovery, whichever is later….   Faison v Lewis, 2013 NY Slip OP 03813, 2nd Dept, 5-29-13
