Re: Loan Application Forgery

Prosecution for a felony involving forgery must be commenced within four years of the commission of the crime. This would apply to both situations, and would begin counting from the date of commission of the crime.

There are some exceptions, but your fact scenario assumes no exceptions that I can see.

Call if you want to speak further about this matter. 770-607-5300
