  • Year: means a calendar year, unless otherwise expressed. See Indiana Code 1-1-4-5
   Sec. 11. Unless the bond provides a greater period of time, all suits must be brought against a surety on a bond required by this chapter within one (1) year after final settlement with the contractor under section 8 of this chapter. All suits against the surety after this time are barred.
