Legal Question in Criminal Law in Colorado

Re: domestic violence

Domestic violence is not a charge; it is a sentence enhancer. Generally, for misdemeanors (like assault) prosecutors would have a year and a half from the date of the offense; for felonies, three years.

But I wouldn't worry about the window of opportunity to charge someone who beats you; he or she will do it again.

Good luck, and get away from the bastard or bitch.
