What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Louisiana
While in college, I was working for a carpenter doing construction work and custom cabinets. He had just started a new company and we got in a jam when one of our important pieces of equipment failed. He asked me if he could use my credit card to replace the equipment. He ended up using around $3,000.00. I had worked with him for quite a few years and was a good friend of him and his family. He made about 4 small monthly payments on the debt then he moved away and stuck me with the bill. At the time, I was barely paying my way through college so I could not possibly take him to court. I managed to record a conversation telephone with him admitting to me that he owed the debt and had an agreement to pay it.
This is now 7 years later. I don't need the money, but I was going through some old CD Backups and found this old conversation. I'm guessing its way too long to recover this debt now, but I thought I would check here just to make certain that indeed my time has run out to collect on this debt.
