What is the statute of limitations period for a lawsuit for breach of a sales contract? Does the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) allow buyers and sellers to shorten or lengthen the statute of limitations period?

What will be an ideal response?


The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) provides that a lawsuit for breach of a sales contract must be filed within four years after the breach occurs. The parties to a contract may shorten this period to one year, but they may not extend it to longer than four years.
