My question involves criminal law for the state of: California
I had a question concerning the state laws of sexual assault in the state of California, and if there is a time limitation, or if I can take any action at all really. During my childhood (from 7-13) My uncle abused me. He never forced actual intercourse but he did force many sexual acts. I'm almost 21 now, and I've been a pretty emotionally closed person, which I blame on the abuse, but I just recently moved back to the town in which this was happening, causing me to have a sort of mental break and break down emotionally. I decided I wanted to press charges but i heard it would be near impossible to get anykind of conviction since it did happen quite a while ago. I dont have physical evidence but I do have few witnesses.
