A personal injury suit, such as an assault and battery case brought by the victim of domestic violence, must be brought within two years in Texas.

Most states you have 1 year to file, if you have police reports taken on the day of the event. After 5 years you are S*** out of luck. Murder is the only crime that has no Statute of Limitations

Is there any evidence left 5 years later that it even occurred? With no evidence, you'd be lucky to find a DA willing to prosecute, even if it isnt up...
