There is no statute of limitations as such in terms of your right to get another insurance company to insure you as if you were an honest guy after defrauding another insurer. They can't trust you, and a Class B misdeameanor is nothing to sneeze off either; it's serious.

You may want to inquire of the NJ Insurance Department.
