What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Massachusetts
My sister-in-law reported my stocks as stolen, had them reissued and forged my name and my aunts name on stocks in my and my aunt's (now deceased) names and cashed them in. I found out about it when I attempted to cash them in myself (she didn't know my aunt had given me them). I notified the institutions involved, filled out affidavits, etc. Nothing came of it. I have tried calling various state agencies, and they just give me the runaround.
Is there a statute of limitations on a criminal case against her? It has been 10 years since she forged the stocks. Could I take her to small claims court? At the time I tried to cash them in, they were worth a little less than $4000.
