Invasion Of Privacy Statute Of Limitations in Michigan

Under Michigan’s MCL § 600.5813, the statute of limitations for an invasion of privacy claim is three years. This governing authority establishes the time window within which a plaintiff must file suit, beginning from the date the claim accrues. The statute does not prescribe a single triggering event; rather, Michigan courts apply common-law accrual principles and statutory exceptions detailed in the official source. The three-year period applies generally, though the law provides for specific exceptions and tolling rules set out in the source. The worked example below demonstrates how the three-year limit operates in a standard accrual scenario. To estimate your own deadline under this rule, use the DocketMath calculator with the details from the official source.
