People v. Moore, No. B207616

Conviction for grand theft and perjury is affirmed where the trial court properly denied defendant's motion to dismiss based on the statute of limitations, as a third-party disbursing contractor is not the victim when a person defrauds a government funded program, and thus defendant did not establish as a matter of law that the statute of limitations on his crimes ran before the People filed the complaint.
