Re: statute of limitations
The statute of limitations applies only to when you are charged with the offense. Once the criminal complaint is filed, the statute "tolls" (stops running). Since you have already been convicted, the S/L tolled well before then. As for the DMV, there is no S/L on compliance with requirements for driver's licensing.
Re: statute of limitations
The statute of limitations for this offense does not apply to you. You have already been convicted. You will likely have to complete a new program in order to bein compliance.
