It is not possible to give you a clear legal answer to your inquiry without a more detailed evaluation of the facts of your case. Basically, Kentucky Revised Statute no. 514.160 makes Theft of Identity a "Class D" felony. There is no statute of limitations for felonies in Kentucky.

You should not take any action, based upon my advice, without consulting an attorney and explaining all the facts to him. You are best advised to seek the services of a competent Kentucky attorney. You can get a referral to a criminal law specialist from the Kentucky Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, at

Additionally, you can telephone your local bar association for a referral, or can find a good lawyer on-line at the Kentucky Bar Association's Lawyer Referral Service:
