RAINN notes that, with many states, Arizona places a time limit on how long it has to pursue some sex crime cases. In many instances, the state has seven years from the date of identifying a possible perpetrator to initiate legal action. Yet, some criminal cases don’t come with deadlines, meaning the state can charge you at any time. Our team can review how long ago the alleged sex crime happened and explain whether the state can pursue a case based on the applicable statute of limitations.
