For civil lawsuits, it varies from 1 year to 30 years, but generally it's 6 years.

For criminal actions, the time to start prosecution is 5 years for "crimes" (felonies) and 1 year for "disorderly persons offenses" and "petty disorderly persons offenses" (misdemeanors and petty misdemeanors). No limit on some serious crimes.
