I asked a professor to write a recommendation in 2013 for me. However, I didn't apply that year and the letter is still in the system. Can i use it for application this year?
I think so.. I believe the LSAC website says you are to contact the professors and get their permission that it is still OK to use, or something along those lines.
I have 2 letters on my lsac account from 2015 that I won't be using until the 2018 cycle (God Willing) and I believe just as long as your account didn't expire, they should be good to use no matter how long they've been there for. Maybe LSAC changed the rule though, @"Alex Divine" ?

It should be fine, but people usually recommend that if it's possible to let your writer know you won't be applying until later in case they need to change up some wording in their letter. I.e. "I recommend Harambe for the Law School entering class of 2013, he was a student of mine this past spring semester..." you get the gist
