If you were indicted for a crime, then it wasn't for the charge that was Nolle Prossed. Nolle Prosequi means that prosecution was declined. If they declined to prosecute for the offense then you would never have been indicted - UNLESS - you were indicted by a "Special Grand Jury" who, independent of the prosecutor's office, was investigating a specific area of interest, and found your offense met their criteria.
This is an opinionated question. Any charges can be nolle prossed for many reasons by the state attorney (prosecutor).
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.
The terms are NOT synomymous.A 'dismissal" is issued by a judge and is exactly what the word implies - the charge is dismissed.WHEREAS when a charge is Nolle Prossed it means that the prosecutor (for whatever reason) declines to present it to the court or prosecute it. The charge does not 'go away' and the 'Nolle' is entered in the records as the disposition of the charge.
YOU don't Nolle Prosse a case, the prosecutors office makes that decision. Nolle Prosse, means, "I decline to prosecute." The reason the prosecutor may decline to prosecute may be due to some legal deficiency he sees in the case that might cause it to be thrown out or lost. If the police can, later, deliver more evidence or otherwise strengthen the original case, the prosecutor CAN re-institute the nolle prossed case and indict you.
Typically, an arrest that has been nolle prossed (dismissed by the prosecutor) may still appear on a criminal background check. However, the final disposition of the case should indicate that the charges were dismissed. It is recommended to review the background check results carefully and provide an explanation if needed.
Yes, a case that was nolle prossed can potentially be reopened if new evidence emerges or if there were errors in the legal proceedings. However, it typically requires a strong justification as reopening a nolle prossed case is not common.
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.
See below link for the legal definition of 'Nolle Prosequi.' I'm not certain that the term is used in the military justice system.
If your plea bargain is successful, the original (usually more severe) charge is Nolle Prossed by the prosecutor in exchange for a guilty plea to a lesser offense.
The record of your arrest for that particular offense will continue to exist and your criminal history will reflect the fact that the charge was Nolle Prossed. If that is the situation, you may petition to have that record expunged from your criminal history record.
If you mean that the charges you were arrested on were Nolle Prossed - - the answer may well depend on the judge who granted you diversion in the first place. If they learn of the arrest they may begin to consider you a "bad risk" for the lenient sentence you were given, and they could withdraw the Diversion disposition. Only the judge will be able to answer your question.
This sounds like words and phraseology taken from a court file or a disposition sheet which are typically written quickly in a kind of 'shorthand' or a short, brief, and terse fashion, which follows no legal formula.That being said, THIS is how I would interpret it: The court action against the defendant was disposed of (ended/cut short/concluded) because the Prosecutor Nolle Prossed(declined to prosecute) the charge in exchange for the defendant accepting an "alternative" type of remedial action (diversion).
