Yeiter v. Knights of St Casimir Aid Society

After making a series of loans to the defendant, the plaintiff was only partially repaid. He filed suit to obtain the remainder, but the circuit court restricted his recovery by applying the statute of limitations to a portion of the obligation. The Court of Appeals affirmed. We reverse the judgment of the Court of Appeals and reverse in part the judgment of the circuit court. The partial payments, some of which were within the limitation period, renewed the defendant’s promise to pay the amount owed.
