What this amendment would do

SA 5919, submitted by Mr. Husted, aims to change the Export Control Reform Act of 2018 by adding a ten-year statute of limitations for export control violations.

The purpose of this amendment is to set specific time limits on legal actions:

  • Civil Actions: Any suit or proceeding for civil fines, penalties, or forfeitures must be started within 10 years of the violation. This includes the issuance of a charging letter.

  • Criminal Actions: No person can be prosecuted, tried, or punished for an offense unless the indictment is found or the information is instituted within 10 years after the latest date of the violation.
