Suspension of expiry of the limitation period in the case of persons without full capacity to contract

If the limitation period is shorter than six months, then the period specified for limitation takes the place of the period of six months.

(2) Subsection (1) does not apply to the extent that a person with limited capacity to contract is capable of suing and being sued.
