How long can a cps case remain open?

I am presuming that CPS stands for Child Protective Services. A CPS case is not a court case, especially if a court case is separate. Therefore that case can remain open if a case worker feels that it should be. Let's say for example, you are charged with child abuse, a case presented to the court by Child Protective Services. For starters, it is not Child Protective Services that actually brings a case to court: it's the state attorney's office. If the court later decides to dismiss your case, then Child Protective Services can still monitor your case for later, and even remove the child from your home if necessary. I am assuming that the 'court case' is a criminl proceeding. If so, then yes, yes, yes ~ you're CPS case could easily remain open far past disposition of any criminal charges ~ whether the criminal charges are dropped or not. Because CPS is not bound by anywhere near the standard of proof (or the presumption of innocence) that criminal courts require, the outcomes of each can be entrely different. Also, 'services provided' by CPS are not considered punishment, so the duration of your case is not seen as a sentence, but a service.

How can you find out dates on a closed CPS Case?

If the information regarding the specific CPS case is known and the person has the right to have access then they can call the government agency that the CPS case went through.

If a court case and a child protective case are closed in the town where you live can the state still keep it open even if its all been closed where you live?

It is unclear what you are asking. Most Child Protective Services (CPS) agencies are state agencies, so it is unclear what you are refererring to when you say a "state agency" is keeping it open.
