Q: Breach of contract
Can I Sue for breach of contract because I was in the hospital 5 years later
A: An Illinois attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. The question isn't fully clear in the way it's written, but it looks like you may be asking if a hospital stay gives you more time to sue than allowed by your state's statute of limitations? Do you mean being in a hospital for five years, or do you mean finding yourself in the hospital around five years after the breach of contract? Do you mean simply finding yourself in a hospital, or being legally incapacitated - resulting in a hospital stay. There's a difference. You should reach out to attorneys in your state to discuss this in detail - a local attorney needs to advise here. Good luck
