Murphy v. Shamilian
In an attorney's lawsuit against former clients to collect his fees based on an open book account, the trial court found the action was barred by the four year statute of limitations. Court conclude that the statute of limitations period began to run on the date the defendants substituted the lawyer out of the underlying action and the lawyer threatened to sue the clients for outstanding fees. Because the action was filed more than four years after that date, Court affirm the judgment.
