till statute of limitations expire
Another View: The "court" does not charge anyone, it only 'hears' the charges. The Prosecutor's Office charges the defendant. Usually the defendant's is required to presented at the next regularly scheduled session of court, which can vary from virtually immediately up to 48 hours, depending on the area of the country and times court in the jurisdiction is actually in session.
all depends on the crime ... I have heard 1year, then 7year statute of limitations, but murder is forever.
Police has to file charges as soon as possible after the search warrant. This means that charges should be brought forward with 7 days.

You will not be taken seriously if you continue to live with or spend time with the abuser before filing charges. You should have filed a police report immediately and the police would have taken photos. It is puzzling that you would want to wait to press charges. The longer you wait the less attention you will get.
No. An arrest warrant is valid until it is served or cancelled by the court.
Usually you can't after the injuries have healed unless you have photos to prove it. It's best to file the charges at the time of the incident
after being brought into custody how long do the police have to bring formal charges against you in the state of ga.
Arrest warrants in Florida do not expire. Once the warrant is issued, it is valid until you are caught unless the court dismisses it.
it depends on the state, but most misdemeanors can be expunged from your record three years after the sentence is carried out. you will have to go back to court to have this done.
The longer you wait the less seriously they will be taken.
