Does the applicable statute of limitations apply to an information that was brought before the appropriate date?

Ordinarily, " 'the applicable statute of limitations . . . is . . . the primary guarantee against bringing overly stale criminal charges.' " (United States v. Marion (1971) 404 U.S. 307, 322 (Marion); see People v. Jones (2013) 57 Cal.4th 899, 921.) But due process might provide a basis for dismissing an information if a defendant showed that prosecutorial delay before the filing of the charging document prejudiced the defense or the right to a fair trial. (See Marion, supra, at pp. 325-326.)
