Criminal cases are different from Civil cases, and the time limit is driven by how serious the crime is. As in most other states, Oregon law does not impose time limits for the prosecution of murder or manslaughter charges. There is a six-year statute of limitations for sexual felonies or crimes in which the victim is under 18 at the time of the offense. There is a three-year limit for all other felonies, and a two-year limit for most misdemeanors in the state.
