Is there a Statute of Limitations in the State of Florida on collecting of a judgement that was awarded in a divorce case? If so, what is the time frame?
The holding in the Adams v. Adams case says that Florida judgments are good for 20 years, and that prior to expiry they may be sued upon to renew them.
It has been cited in subsequent cases:

∙ 15y agoSettlements don't have statutes of limitations. Statutes of limitation tell you how long you have to FILE a lawsuit after you have the right to file it.
If you file a divorce case in Florida, your case can be dismissed if you don't file anything in the court file for a year. It is not dismissed until either (1) the Petitioner files a Notice of Dismissal or (2) the judge orders it dismissed because nothing has been filed.
