How long do you have to file charges on someone in TX that has supplied alcohol to a minor?
Dsaide
Individuals do not and cannot file criminal charges. Only a state or federal prosecutor can file charges. However you can make report to police about the alleged criminal act. The sooner the better, the longer you take to report it the more difficult the investigation becomes, and the more doubt is actually cast on you as to why you held off reporting it for so long.
