In VA it is 2 yrs.
This matter was found nolle prosequi.
Nolle prosequi is a motion offered by the prosecution when they feel they do not have enough evidence to gain a conviction. Because this is not an acquittal, the state still has the right to retry at a future date.
The term NOLLE PROSEQUI is used in criminal court and describes an entry in a criminal case when the prosecutor of the case decides (for whatever reason) not to prosecute the charge. It's not clear to me why the questioner is linking a "nolle" to "disciplinary charges."
Nolle prosse is the disposition of a case after a declaration by the prosecution of nolle prosequi. This means that the prosecution has declined to pursue charges against the defendant, although they may retry at a later date.
Technically, a case that is "Nolle Prosequied" is not 'dismissed.' It is not a finding by the prosecutor that the crime never took place. A Nolle Prosequi" is a decision by the prosecutor that (for whatever reason) they choose not to go forward with the prosecution of the offense and the case, therefore, is simply dropped. See: http://definitions.uslegal.com/n/nolle-prosequi/ ". . . . .the entry of a nolle prosequi is not an adjudication on the merits of the prosecution, and the legal protection against double jeopardy will not automatically bar the charges from being brought again in some fashion."
The legal term "Nolle Prosequi" means "Do not prosecute". It means that the prosecute has decided not to prosecute the charge.
Only if the prosecutor's office enters a nolle prosequi.
yes it will. But because its a nolle they stopped prosecution which means you have a higher chance of being able to that record expunged or sealed
Nolle Prosequi: Decision by a prosecutor not to go forward with charging a crime. It translates "I do not choose to prosecute." Also loosely called nolle pros.
Nolo Prosequi, nolle prosequi, nolle prosse = "no prosecute." This means that the Prosecutor has decided not to prosecute the case. This could be in exchange for a pretrial intervention offer (one where if you complete certain objectives and are not arrested for anything during this period of time of about six months average, your case will not proceed in court on charges), or simply because there is no likelihood of successful prosecution of the case. It could also be the result of the prosecutor agreeing to drop other charges in exchange for a guilty plea of the main charge.
Nolle prossed (NOLE pross'ed) means DISMISSED. Nolle prossed means nolle prosequi, or no prosecuting. This means that the prosecutor decided not to prosecute the case, either because he's not likely to win or because the Defendant completed a pre-trial intervention program. So the case is dismissed.
I believe what you are referring to is a "NOLLE PROSEQUI" which is filed by a prosecutor. Yes, along with the record of your arrest, it will appear on your record.
