1Opinion of the Court
FERGUSON, Judge.
The sole question presented is when does the statute of limitations begin to run against a drawer in an action for wrongful dishonor of a check — on the date of issuance of the cheek or the date of presentment and dishonor?
Rose Tepper (appellant) was adjudicated an incompetent in December, 1982. On examination of her personal effects, a court-appointed guardian discovered a check for the sum of $6,068, dated January 4, 1974. The check was drawn to Rose Tepper by Citizens Federal Savings and Loan Association against its account with Jefferson National Bank. See Exhibit.
