What about in Texas after a warrant has been filed? My buddy was asking about this yesterday. He has a warrant for a hot check in another county from 10 years ago.

So the fact that a warrant was issued within the 2 year statute means they can still come after him after all these years?

Standard answer on statute of limitations:

There are thousands of posts similar to yours on this forum, so I have prepared a standard answer.

The statutes on limitations is, among other things, a statute telling the government how long it has to file a criminal charge. It stops running the day the charge is filed.

This is not a game of tag where, if you can keep from getting caught, you are home free.

Some states and jurisdictions will pull old warrants after awhile; some states and jurisdictions keep warrants active forever.

My best advice: surrender.

Basically you are saying that there is a two year time limit to file a hot check. Although, any state or local government can override that and file say years later even though no orginal charge was ever filed?

Just trying to make sure I have this information correct.
