The statute was amended sometime after D started his illegal activities. Under the new statute, the crime was defined to be a continuing offense. The statute of limitations could not be tolled until final discharge in bankruptcy. D was denied a discharge in bankruptcy more than three years before his indictment was brought. D had not been discharged at the time of the indictment. D was indicted and filed a motion to dismiss the indictment because of the statute of limitations.
