Breach Of Fiduciary Duty Statute Of Limitations in Michigan

Under Michigan’s MCL § 600.5813, a claim for breach of fiduciary duty must be brought within three years. This statute of limitations applies to actions seeking legal or equitable relief for a fiduciary’s alleged misconduct, with the three-year period generally running from the time the claim accrues. The statute sets out the governing limitations period but does not enumerate every exception or tolling circumstance; the official source provides the exact rule. A worked example below demonstrates a straightforward calculation using the verified three-year figure. To estimate how this limitation applies to a specific situation, the DocketMath calculator can compute the deadline based on the user’s individual facts.

Deadline example

For a Michigan breach of fiduciary duty limitations check, use the verified limitations period from the current rule packet: 3 years. The authority packet cites MCL § 600.5813 (https://www.legislature.mi.gov/Laws/MCL?objectName=mcl-600-5813).

Example inputs:

• Accrual date: 2024-04-25
• Filing date checked: 2026-04-25

Calculation:

• Start with the accrual date.
• Add 3 years.
• The example deadline is 2027-04-25.

This example is generated from the verified facts packet rather than freeform prose. Confirm tolling, discovery rules, and claim-specific exceptions before relying on the date.
