It can cause the statute of limitations to start over, or at least toll. It will depend on the law in the jurisdiction and how it is written.

Live in Texas you will receive a summons in a few days but its been 8 years how do you respond?

I assume you mean "it's been 8 years from the time the dispute occurred." If so, the statute of limitations likely bars the lawsuit. A local attorney can tell you the statute of limitations for the case. If the statute of limitations has expired for the case, it is a good idea to have the attorney draft an answer form to the complaint including an affirmative defense of statute of limitations expiration. If you do not have an attorney draft an answer, be sure to add statute of limitations expiration as an affirmative defense in your answer to the summons and complaint.
