Wouldn't this be covered by the statue of limitations in your jurisdiction(s)?

I honestly don't know, I remember there was some clause where one promises not to sue then there's a payout for accrued PTO and severance which could be all standard boilerplate but not an expert on any of that. IIRC the founders of the studio got fired the day their employment contract expired and then Blizzard North got taken over by the guys from Blizzard HQ, then everyone at Blizzard North all had to re-interview for our jobs, first the IT guys so they could lock out everyone they were firing/laying off and what not.

If it wasn't a typo then I hope you would appreciate it being brought to your attention that it's 'statute', not 'statue'.

Oops, yeah. Definitely a typo.

Now I'm picturing a statue of limitations though. Maybe ye old roman style, with the words around the base. :D

Reminds me a little of this scene from Seinfeld: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iq8gfaFqFpI

In fact, I think of that whenever I hear 'statute of limitations'.
