Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Jersey
Press charges
I had someone threating to kill myself and my family. Though I am not sure if this person would ever follow through with such an action. I would like to know the amount of time I have to press charges against him.

Re: Press charges
It depends on how the police write it up. Keep in mind that if you let too much time go by, the police may not care. I suggest you just do it now and let the police worry about the time. It will either be 1 year or 5 years.
