I think you're right Typhoo. Depends on the type of charge that is being considered and how/if the Crown chooses to proceed. There are summary, indictable and hybrid offences (with hybrid being where the Crown can choose to proceed either by summary or indictable). There is a 6 month statute of limitation on summary offences and no limitation period on indictable offences (except treason where the statute of limitations is 3 years)
Thanks for this info..but just wonder why then it was brought up in court that it was still under investigation. What would be the purpose? If it can't be proved then the D would have been all over that I would think. Just asking cause I don't know..
