in case you probably did a fulfillment and run then you are a fugitive. Statutes of limitations are "tolled" - i.e. stopped - at the same time as the defendant is 'on the run'. Statutes of limitations exist to stay away from the State from dragging their ft in filing expenditures. they do no longer function to advantages someone for operating from the regulation. at the same time as they make certain out who did the hit-and-run they could fee you - no matter if it really is 50 years from now.

hit and run involving a death!?!? you mean like "murder"?
murder has no statute of limitations, because if it did, a lot of these people that are getting arrested etc for murders from years ago, wouldnt be getting arrested.

Don't worry about it, you should go up to the nearest policeman and ask them. Make sure you are driving the car you were driving on that dark and rainy night.

Talk to an attorney. You can probably do this free by contacting legal aid, which is listed in your telephone directory.

If you caused a death, it becomes murder, which means there is no statue of limitations.
