Supreme Court of Connecticut
State v. Orane C.
December 17, 2024350 Conn. 815
Summary
The court held that the defendant's prosecution on count two was barred by the five-year statute of limitations because the 2020 substitute information introduced conduct from 2014 at a different location, rather than relating back to the timely charges concerning 2017 conduct. The arrest warrant affidavit's description of the 2014 conduct did not toll the limitations period because it did not charge that conduct. The court reversed the judgment as to count two, directed an acquittal on that count, and required resentencing on the remaining counts.
