Exceptions and details
Set by court rule, not statute: Fla. Sm. Cl. R. 7.010(b) applies to county-court civil claims for money or property worth up to $8,000, not counting costs, interest and attorney fees. The source is the Florida Small Claims Rules as of July 1, 2026, published by The Florida Bar. Rule 7.010 was amended effective January 1, 2020 and again January 1, 2026; the current text still says $8,000. The same limit applies to individuals and businesses.
HB 837 (ch. 2023-15, Laws of Fla.) cut the general negligence period from 4 years to 2 years. It took effect March 24, 2023 and applies to causes of action accruing after that date; claims that accrued earlier keep the old 4-year period. The provision was § 95.11(4)(a) after HB 837 and is § 95.11(5)(a) in the 2026 Florida Statutes, after a later renumbering. Wrongful death (§ 95.11(5)(e)) and medical malpractice (§ 95.11(5)(c)) are also 2 years. Personal-injury product-liability claims remain 4 years (§ 95.11(3)(d)).
