Section 15-12-109 - Statutes of limitations on decedent's cause of action

No statute of limitations running on a cause of action belonging to a decedent which had not been barred as of the date of his death shall apply to bar a cause of action surviving the decedent's death sooner than one year after death. A cause of action which, but for this section, would have been barred less than one year after death is barred after one year unless tolled.L. 73: R&RE, p. 1567, § 1. C.R.S. 1963: § 153-3-109.
