Collector Loses Bid to Claim Title to $1 Million Sculpture

A Manhattan Court ruled today that a Canadian art collector, David Mirvish, who claims title to a 1,100-pound sculpture by Jacques Lipchitz waited too long to file his court action.  Justice Leland DeGrasse wrote in Mirvish v. Mott, that Mirvish’s claims were governed by the three-year statute of limitations for conversion and replevin, but Mirvish did not file his action until almost five years after the limitations period had run.
