The prosecutor must file charges before the statute of limitations expires for the alleged crime.

You mean how long can he take to bring it to court? Depends on how long it takes to get his case together and how many times the defense can put it off legally. I have seen it take a year. I really don't know how long the law allows. Most never make it to trail because they cut a deal.
