What is the statue of limitations for back rent owed in Missouri?

rent back
I was wondering if anyone knew what the statue of limitations is for a person that owes you back rent. It has almost been a year since they moved out and still owe rent. How long do I have to sue them for it?

    Probably the standard 7 years from last acknowledgment of debt, but your chances are already slim to none.
