Legal changes on the institution of limitation. Impact on civil trials

Summary/Abstract: The institution of limitation has a key impact on civil trials. Because of its high importance and major influence on the stability of the civil circuit, the institution is well know and regulated from the ancient times. Nowadays the limitation benefits of a wide regulation, namely articles 2500-2544 of the New Civil Code. As mentioned in the doctrine the passing of time is a reality regulated by law and has important consequences on the subjective civil rights. As the effects of the limitation can consist either of the extinction of a civil subjective right either of the acquisition of a civil right the present paper will focus only on the limitation as a civil sanction which affects the material right to an action not exerted within the period established by law.
