Re: sex
Generally yes, limitations period within which prosecution must be commenced for such a case is up to 5 years form the commission of the crime. In addition, when a minor is involved that period doesn't start until she is 18 years of age. Please contact our office for a more detailed consultation if you think that a possibility of criminal action against you is a possibility.
