More details to this question:
I've been sued by a bank for a credit loan of a 500 limit that I was a co-sing on 1997. The person went bankruptcy on 2002 but they didn't accept the amount they got offer by the bankruptcy and made their own lawsuit against her. At the end was no show on court cause she was at the other court room doing the bankruptcy . Now the bank is suing me for everything after 13 yrs. Is there any statue of limitations on this or the bank can sue you even if the case is 20 yrs old? Plus I had an account with the same bank on the yr 2006,2007,2008 and they never froze the acc or ask me for any money. They even give me a check when I close the acc. It have to be justice on this on my side. Please help.

First, the is no "justice on anyones side" as that would not be justice by definition. Unfortunately, there are way too many variables to provide you a response, other than you need to immediately hire a lawyer to sort this out for you, including potential statute of limitations defenses that may exist, as I agree that this may well be a time barred debt that they are trying to bamboozle you on. If you can't or choose not to hire a lawyer, you may find this of help. www.5hourlawschool.com
