A: The statute of limitations for unauthorized interception of texts would generally fall under the state's general two-year statute of limitations for personal injury actions. This would mean that a lawsuit or criminal charges related to the interception of texts without consent should be initiated within two years from the date the cause of action accrues. It's important to note that legal situations can be complex, and the specific facts of each case can influence the application of statutes of limitations.
