A: 27 years ago is a tough one. You might have more luck with the DA as the fraud crimes statute of limitations do not trigger until discovery of the fraud.

Then the question becomes: Why and how did you not know until now?

LMK that answer so I may be able to guide you further. Don't get your hopes up.

I hope this helps.

Good Luck!
