A cause of action for nonpayment of a debt arises when a debtor fails to fulfill their obligation to pay a debt by the due date specified in the agreement. This typically occurs after a demand for payment has been made and the debtor has not responded or paid. In some cases, the creditor may need to provide a formal notice or follow specific legal procedures before the cause of action can be formally initiated.
