  • Seeking Answers on Legal Action for Unpaid Loan Across Borders

    I loaned a significant sum of money to someone I met online less than 5 years ago to help them through a tough time. I am in Canada and they are in Kentucky, US. We had a written agreement and repayment plan, but they haven't made any payments. I want to pursue legal action but have some questions:
    1. Is the statute of limitations for repayment based on the last agreement or any subsequent discussions about repayment? Would contacting them to discuss repayment reset the limitation?
    2. They've changed contact information, but I found a possible address through Intelius. Any advice on locating them or other services?
    3. Can I file a small claim online and attend court sessions online in Kentucky from Canada? The registration doesn't accept a Canadian address. Can I use a friend's US address, or do I need an official third-party service? Could using a friend's address be grounds for rejection by the court?
    Thanks for any help!
