Each state is different. In California, for example, misdemeanor possession would have a one year limit on prosecution. However, the clock does not run while you are out of the state, so simply leaving the country and coming back a year later does not help you.

Felony possession (e.g. with intent to distribute) could be prosecuted up to 8 years later.

Kentucky's statute of limitations are very basic and simple. In this case quantity will probably play a factor. If the crime is a felony of any type there is no limit. Misdemeanors are set at 1 year.
