OPINION

PER CURIAM.

In this case, we are asked to decide whether a violation of the statute that makes it a felony to refuse to pay court-ordered support for a former or current spouse or for a child, MCL 750.165(1), is subject to the ten-year period of limitations in MCL 600.5809(4) or the six-year "catch-all" period of limitations in MCL 767.24(5). We are also asked to decide whether a violation of this statute constitutes a continuing offense.
