Dear client, As long as you have sufficient proof to show that you have paid and that your friend is in a position to pay it back, you can file a case. Whether you want to file a criminal case for cheating and fraud or you want to take civil measures is up to you. Furthermore, there are rules for limitation but there are also options such as condonation of delay or different legal approach. Do let me know if you have any questions.
