In CA, the statute of limitations is substantive. A def may, at any time during the trial process, plead the statute of limitations as a defense. It does not matter if the def is unaware at the time the suit was filed or even after the def has entered into a plea. If it is brought up by the def that the crime has passed the statute of limitations, the case is dismissed.
