§ 94.Persons Under Disability - Time to Sue to Recover Realty
Chapter 3: Limitations of Actions · Not amended since adoption on record · Last verified August 3, 2026
Full Text of § 94
Amendment History
R.L. 1910, § 4656.
Plain-English Summary
Section 93 runs the clock on real-property recovery claims from accrual, but Section 94 tolls that clock for anyone under a legal disability at the time. Once the disability is removed, that person gets two years to bring the action, even if the normal deadline would otherwise have already passed.
The text doesn't define “legal disability” itself; it only supplies the extra two-year window once it ends, and it reaches only real-property recovery actions, not other kinds of claims.
