There may be a Statute of Limitations, but the length of it depends upon what you signed, if anything, and what state's laws govern. Usually the Statute is 7 years. More facts are needed to provide more than a general response to your question.

Were these for personal use? If so, and if you filed a New Jersey 1040, that is also a USE tax return. Therefore, there would be a 3 year Statute of Limitations from the date of filing. You should contact a tax lawyer to handle this matter for you.
