In the UK, there is a time limit after court action can not be taken in certain types of cases. This differs in the three legal systems of England.

Civil claims
The major legislation relating to civil claims in England and Wales is the 1980 Restriction Act, which lists the time for different types of cases.
Debt
If the lender allows six years to graduate without receiving any payments, the act of remedy may become prohibited by law.
Injury litigation
The general deadline for injury litigation is three years, with some exceptions and special cases. The restriction law for injuries to children only begins on the eighteenth birthday. The restrictive law for brain damage only begins when the victim has been medically recognized as regaining cognitive abilities. The Montreal Convention (1999) and the Athens Convention (1974) provide for restrictive legislation to compensate for injuries to aircraft or while at sea.
Libel
The limitation period for defamation, slander, title slander, defamation or other falsehood is one year.

Criminal problems
Magistrate Court
With regard to criminal matters, Section 127 of the Court of Justice Act 1980 states that usually:
- the court of judges will not attempt information or hear complaints unless the information is laid, or a complaint is made, within 6 months of the time the offense is committed, or a complaint issue arises./dd>
- 'information is placed for the purposes of section 127 of the Magistrates Court Magistrates Act 1980 when admitted to the scribe's office to the judge for the relevant area'. It is not necessary that the information be received personally by the peace courts or by the court clerks.
Court is higher
Unlike other European countries, the UK has no restriction laws applicable to serious sexual offenses.
Actors of Road Traffic Acting
Part 1 of the Road Traffic Officers Act 1988 requires a Notice of Prosecution Addressed (NIP) to be served within 14 days of the applicable violations committed; if that does not happen, may follow that further action can be prevented. However, there are exceptions to the 14-day rule: if alleged violations committed in company cars or cars are not driven by a registered car guard are exemptions exemptions for the day to allow police to make an investigation. Date of violation not included.
The responsibility lies with the agency issuing the Proclaimed Evidence Notification (NIP) to ensure the Notice is presented within 14 days. The definition "presented" has changed. Prior to 1994, NIPs were serviced by registered or registered mail, but in 1994 the 1988 Traffic Starter Act was amended to allow for standard postal delivery. Several successful defenses against NIP have been made on the production of envelopes containing NIPs where the postmark on the envelope indicates to the court that NIPs are unacceptable within 14 days.
People's Representation of People
Section 176 of the People's Representation Act 1986, requires that the process for any offense in the act commences within one year of the offense committed.
