What happens when someone charges you?

When someone presses charges against you, it often starts with a call to the police or a formal complaint. Police officers or law enforcement agents will investigate the alleged crime. This may involve gathering evidence, speaking to witnesses, and obtaining police reports.

What does it mean when a charge is filed?

A criminal case typically starts when the prosecution (usually a district attorney) files charges in court. This is called a Complaint. A Complaint says what crimes someone is charged with. The prosecutor files a Complaint after reviewing a police report. This describes the typical way charges are filed.

When can charges be filed?

If the charges are dismissed without prejudice, the prosecution can refile the case against you but it must be done within the statute of limitations for that particular offense.

What happens when someone doesnt press charges?

Many people think that a victim can drop the charges, but this is not true. You may still have to go to court, and the case may continue on to trial even though the alleged victim doesnt want to pursue charges.

How long do the feds have to file charges?

Statutes of Limitations in Federal Criminal Cases Federal law establishes a general statute of limitations that says someone charged with a non-capital federal offense must be indicted within 5 years after the offense was committed, unless the law says otherwise.
