This legal document argues that the PROTECT Act's statute of limitations applies to Maxwell's past conduct. It counters Maxwell's argument by explaining that Congress removed an express retroactivity provision from the bill due to constitutional concerns raised by figures like Senator Leahy, not to prevent its application to cases where the statute of limitations had not yet expired.
