Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Repealed laws are in effective from the effective date of the repeal. If the act happened under the law when it was valid the law can be used subject to the statute of limitations or whatever the bill states when it was passed

If you mean it was repealed by the Legislature, then I agree with Mr. Green. If the particular statute was declared unconstitutional, then I disagree.

I agree with Mr. Roach. If the law was constitutional, it can still be enforced. It can't be *violated* anymore, but violations which occurred while it was on the books can still be prosecuted until the limitations period has expired.
