In New Zealand, what you talk of is "plea-bargaining" and does not mean the criminal is not sentenced or that the case is dismissed, but it does mean the criminal or prosecution will get lesser of a sentence eg less money to pay, or less of a sentence in jail.

What does disposed mean in a court of law vs dismissed?
If a case is dismissed means the Judge threw the case out of court. If a juror is dismissed, the juror is told to go home and another juror replaces him. The disposition is the final outcome. That is when the judge is through with the case. If it is a civil case, one side either has to pay the other side or not. If it is a criminal case, one person goes to jail or walks free. Anyway, everyone leaves the court room.

Can a dismissed with prejudice case be appealed?
If the judge dismissed it with prejudice, it doesn't necessarily mean that you "won." All that disposition means is that the JUDGE didn't believe the case against you was grounded in law.Whether the case was civil or criminal, the EXACT same charge could not be brought against you again at the level of original jurisdiction, however, if the Plaintiff (or Prosecutors Office) appealed the judge's decision to the appelate level, the appelate court could conceivably overrule the original judge's dismissal which would have the effect of re-activating the case. If the appelate court refused to hear the appeal, or it affirmed the judge's decision THEN the case would truly 'go away.'
Can a dismissed matter be reinstated?
Yes, a dismissed matter can sometimes be reinstated through a legal process, such as filing a motion to vacate the dismissal or an appeal. The specific procedure and requirements for reinstatement will depend on the laws and rules of the jurisdiction where the matter is being handled. Consulting with an attorney would be advisable in such cases.
What does it mean when a criminal case has been dismissed?
It means that the judge dismissed your charges. The prosecution will dismiss the charges when they cannot proceed in good faith or they cannot prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt at trial. Usually because there was a problem with a piece of evidence or the availability of a witness. Sometimes cases are dismissed during plea negotiations when a person will plead to one case in exchange for the dismissal of another. Sometimes the evidence unfolds and there is doubt that the person charged is really the one that committed the crime. Be carefeul, just because the judge dismissed your case doesn't mean they can't re-file charges against you, but that rarely happens.Added; Judges DISMISS charges - Prosecutors NOLLE PROSEQUI charges.
Why does the principle of double jeopardy not apply if a trail jury cannot reach a verdict in a case?
The trial can be repeated without it being considered double jeopardy when a verdict was not reached unless it was dismissed with prejudiced. They reason is that you are not considered to have been tried if a verdict was not able to be reached. Sometimes a case can be dismissed with prejudice and another trial is not allowed. This can happen if they determine that they was not enough evidence to even go to the jury
