When is the deadline for limitation: action to recover land?
The catalogue records a 15 years period from The date on which the right of action accrued to the plaintiff or to the person through whom the plaintiff claims. This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
Source link required
This page is in preparation. It does not offer an automated deadline or a paid record until the missing source or calculator evidence is complete.

Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 15 years
- Trigger
- The date on which the right of action accrued to the plaintiff or to the person through whom the plaintiff claims
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
- Disability extension under s 23(1), but no such action may be brought by virtue of s 23(1) after 30 years from accrual (s 23(1)(c)).
- Where the right of action first accrued to the Crown, the action may be brought at any time before the expiration of fifteen years from the date the right of action accrued to some person other than the Crown (proviso to s 8). Title is extinguished at the end of the period (s 18). No title by adverse possession runs against the Crown, PTC or Victorian Rail Track, water authorities or Councils (ss 7, 7A, 7AB, 7B).
