| rdfs:comment | - A statute of limitations is a time limit within which legal action can be taken on a given event after it has occurred. Once the time limit has expired, any cases directly involved with the incident will be closed permanently, almost as if the incident never happened. Murders are given a 15-year time limit, while thefts are given 7 years. Cases considered solved are given a much stricter time limit of two years before evidence transferal begins.
- A statute of limitations is a law that provides a time period within which a lawsuit for a violation of that law must be filed.
- A statute of limitations was a law that placed a time limit on how long after the commission of a crime that criminal charges could be preferred. On the planet Lissepia, bank robbery carried a statute of limitations of nine Earth years. That statute was the reason the conspirators of the Lissepian Mother's Day Heist Larell, Hain, Nahsk, and Krit did not attempt to recover the proceeds of the heist from fellow conspirator Morn, who had hidden them, until after the statute of limitations had expired. (DS9: "Who Mourns for Morn?")
