Up until the statues of limitations runs out.

Another View: The question is unclear as to whether the reference is to a case that is already in the court system or not. If the case is already IN the court system the statute of limitations does not toll.

The SOL's apply only if no charges have yet been filed, or the perpetrator has not yet been apprehended.

Can you go to jail if you got a ticket for having a open container in a car in North Carolina?

In North Carolina, receiving a ticket for having an open container in a car is considered a misdemeanor offense, which could result in a fine but not jail time. However, if there are additional charges or if the offense is connected to other criminal activity, the consequences could be more severe.


In NC will a open container charge show up on a background check?

I was charged with "possession of an open container of an alcoholic beverage in the PASSENGER area of a vehicle", meaning I was NOT driving. This was 4 days ago. Today, I went to see the Clerk of Court in my county. They explained that this was an INFRACTION and that NO infractions show on your background check, even if you are convicted of that infraction. Only "criminal acts" appear on a background check and my charge is an INFRACTION.

Can cps remove an infant from hospital if no drugs were found in system nor in mom just cause has open case?

CPS can only remove a child from the hospital if they believe the child is in immediate danger. Having an open case alone is not enough reason for removal. If no drugs were found in the infant or the mother, and there are no other immediate safety concerns, CPS would likely not have grounds for removal.

How do you open a court case?

Court cases are introduced by the plaintiff, whether it's the government in a criminal case or a plaintiff in a civil case. This side of the case is known as the prosecution, who'll actually bring a case into court. The other side of the court case is the side that answers the charges for which the case is brought into court. This is known as the defense. In either case, the charges are introduced to the clerk's office of the property division of the court in order to commence criminal or civil action.


Can you subpoena someone that is in jail?

How long can a cps case remain open?

I am presuming that CPS stands for Child Protective Services. A CPS case is not a court case, especially if a court case is separate. Therefore that case can remain open if a case worker feels that it should be. Let's say for example, you are charged with child abuse, a case presented to the court by Child Protective Services. For starters, it is not Child Protective Services that actually brings a case to court: it's the state attorney's office. If the court later decides to dismiss your case, then Child Protective Services can still monitor your case for later, and even remove the child from your home if necessary. I am assuming that the 'court case' is a criminl proceeding. If so, then yes, yes, yes ~ you're CPS case could easily remain open far past disposition of any criminal charges ~ whether the criminal charges are dropped or not. Because CPS is not bound by anywhere near the standard of proof (or the presumption of innocence) that criminal courts require, the outcomes of each can be entrely different. Also, 'services provided' by CPS are not considered punishment, so the duration of your case is not seen as a sentence, but a service.


Can I file charges for attempted extortion and Conspiracy in Cook County?

Can you move out of state with an on going case involving CPS?

Depending if there is an open investigation or if the investigation has finished without charges pending. The safest bet is to call the case worker or supervisor to determine the status of the case. If the case has criminal charges pending, that would be no. It is called fleeing to avoid prosecution. If you and your case worker have a Family Plan in place you must notify your case worker and quite possibly they will want you to set up an appointment with Family and Child Services in your new location. Anytime you are involved with a state agency you should notify your case worker or supervisor when you have a change of address. People who move during an investigation or with a Plan in place without notifying the agency, can face criminal prosecution.
