Yes, you can potentially be sued for a debt over 10 years old, but it largely depends on the statute of limitations in your jurisdiction. Many places have statutes of limitations that prevent legal action on debts after a certain period, typically ranging from 3 to 10 years. However, if the debt has been renewed or acknowledged in writing, the timeline may reset. It's advisable to consult a legal professional for specific guidance based on your situation.
