That depends on what the charges are since there is a statute of limitations on many crimes/charges. And, the length of time on that also varies from one crime/charge to another, depending on what the crime/charge is. The only one I know of that has no statute of limitations is murder. Google something like "statute of limitations in (your state) on (the charge)." This should help you get more specific info on what you are looking for.
