There are no laws concerning the age of the debtor that prohibits a creditor lawsuit with the exception of those that relate to minors. An individual under the age of majority for their state of residence (usually 18) cannot legally enter into a financial contract and therefore could not be sued for debt. The exception to this rule is if the minor obtained credit, goods, monies by the use of deliberate fraudulent actions, such as using false indentification/information to procure a credit card.
