Is there a statute of limitation on felony charges failure to return rental property in Oklahoma?
In the state of Oklahoma, there is a statute of limitation for felony charges, including failure to return rental property. The statute of limitation for this crime is three (3) years from the date of the alleged offense. This means that the prosecution must file charges against the accused within three years of the date the rental property was due to be returned, or else the charges will be dismissed.
It is important to note that there are some exceptions to this general rule. For example, if the accused is a fugitive from justice, the statute of limitation may be tolled, meaning that it will be temporarily stopped until the accused is apprehended. Additionally, if the accused commits another felony within the three-year period, the statute of limitation for the failure to return rental property charge may be extended.
