How long can a temporary custody order remain in place?

the greatgrandmother is the temp custody holder and was awarded this in Oct of 2005. Due to a bench warrant for a custody case that I started in Aug 2005, that on the date the court met for the hearing of the case was the day that H Katrina hit NO and sent gusting waves of wind to the East which was blowing the roof off of the court house and court was postponed to the next day. In the time from where I entered the court room and left it, I had court rulled visitation with my son (4 mths) over night, because his father ran off with him for 3 weeks and that was the first time I had seen him since he took off w/ our son, and my lawyer told my mother and I to leave, so we did. And when I came back to the father, I had a bench warrant in the state of MS and my son's Ggrandmother was awarded Temp Custody. So my really, really important Q is... If the order was made in Oct 2005, is it expired? Please, please, respond soon, it's really important for me to know. Thank you, Misty

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.

What crimes are considered felonies?

FELONIES are defined as criminal offenses with maximum penalties greater than one year in prison. Felony charges include murder, malicious wounding, and armed robbery, as well as grand larceny, possession of cocaine or heroin and other serious charges. The classification of crime as a felony is based upon the maximum sentence provided by law -- not by what a court actually imposes. Each state and the federal government have their own criminal codes. The element of a particular crime can vary as can the sentencing classification. MISDEMEANOR: Officenses that have a penalty that can include up to one year in jail. The least serious offenses, such as most traffice offenses, are considered infractions for which the penalty is generally under $100 fines. These offenses are generally quick and simple to define and resolve. Most misdemeanors are handled by the issuing of a citation from an arresting officer or a complaint filed by a prosecutor. The citation or complaint includes a short statement of the offense with which you are charged and states whether the offense is an infraction, a misdemeanor, or a felony. Misdemeanors are divided into 4 classes (I, II, III and IV), A Class I misdemeanor is the most prevalent and most serious of all. Class 1 misdeamenors include possession of marijuana, petty parceny (shoplifting) assault and battery, and misdemeanor bad check. Also, several serious traffic offences (DUI, driving while suspended, reckless driving, etc.) are listed as Class 1 misdemeanors.

How long is the federal statute of limitations?

This would depend on which state you live in or the crime was committed in, and also the type of crime committed.

The statute of limitations varies depending on the laws in the state, province or country you live in. Most have set a misdemeanor at 2 or 3 years. Some have no expiration for felony crimes. Murder and rape normally do not have an statute of limitations at all.

That means you have to be charged with the crime before the expiration. Once you have been charged, the statute of limitations no longer applies.

Whats the statute of limitations for probation violation in Texas?

A probation officer generally cannot file a violation report if the person is no longer on probation or if the "violation" occurred before or after the probationary period, even if that violation occurred while the person was on probation.

Added: The question is unclear and does not disclose any infomration about what kind of "violation" is being referred to.

Probation is a sentence for being found guilty of an offense. Your sentence was to serve probation for a certian length of time and meet certain court-mandated criteria.

If the "violation" was absconding before the term of probation was completed - then it does not expire. You have not completed the term of your sentence and it is considered the same as if you had escaped from jail.
