Sometimes charges can be dropped against someone even after an affidavit has been signed. It will really depend on the charges and city and state.
YOU cannot have the charges dropped by yourself. Such an assault is a crime against the state and only the prosecutor can 'drop' the charges. If you are a reluctant 'complaining witness' speak to the prosecutor about your hesitation to go forward.
This is something that can happen, yes. Whether or not you're offered such a deal is up to the prosecutors.
A sworn affidavit is necessary in court cases to provide a written statement of facts or evidence under oath. This helps to ensure the accuracy and truthfulness of the information provided, as it subjects the individual making the affidavit to potential penalties for perjury if they provide false information. Sworn affidavits help establish a formal record of testimony or evidence that can be used as part of the legal proceedings.
yes
what is the difference between 1st, 2nd,and 3rd degree assault
Most states have a Statute Of Limitations during which charges can be filed against someone for certain types of crimes. Example, in Maryland you have a year and a day to bring or file charges against someone.

If they violated the law, absolutely!
No, the charges will not be dropped unless you are the only complainasnt and the only witness. The person arrested will have a permanent arrest record on their criminal history anyway.
A statement made by someone against you, if it's a legal statement, will be presented to you and you will have the chance to respond. If there will be charges brought against you, it will be in the form of a subpoena.
A person can write an affidavit, but it must be witnessed and signed by someone of legal age (usually over 18). In most states, the affidavit must be legally notarized.
