Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas
Limitation!
I had a misdemeanor class ''A'' case. The case has been dismissed for little less than 2 years, but it has been more than 2 years from the date of offense. Is the case still tolling or I am ready to have my record expunged? If it is still tolling, then how does one calculate the tolling period on a misdemeanor in Texas? I am confused, some light on the issue will be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Re: Limitation!
The statute of limitations is tolled during the period of time between arrest and dismissal. You have to subtract that period, and accrue the two years. (Unless there was a finding by the court/jury of not guilty).
