Statute of Limitations Inapplicable to Administrative Remedies
DES v. Hayden, 427 Ariz. Adv. Rep. 3, ___ Ariz. ___, ___P.2d ___ (Ct. App., Div. 1, 06/08/04).

Section 25-503(I) may prohibit the collection of a judgment through the courts, but the State can still pursue statutory administrative remedies to collect the debt until the debt is paid.
