The following excerpt is from People v. Zamora, 134 Cal.Rptr. 784, 18 Cal.3d 538, 557 P.2d 75 (Cal. 1976):
2 Two distinct statute of limitations issues were raised by all defendants. As to the conspiracy counts, they argued that the general provisions of section 800 barred the indictment. (People v. Crosby (1962) 58 Cal.2d 713, 25 Cal.Rptr. 847, 375 P.2d 839.) As to the grand theft counts, they contended that the 'discovery' provision of section 800 which tolls the statute of limitations for certain crimes was inapplicable in this case.
