If they found whatever it was they were looking for, they will put it together with the any other evidence - present it to the prosecutor to determine if they have a prosecutable case. If the prosecutor feels that they have enough to charge you, you will then be charged.

How long can you be held on house arrest before a court case is thrown out if the prosecutor can't be found?

The length of time someone can be held on house arrest without a court case being thrown out due to a missing prosecutor varies depending on the jurisdiction and specific circumstances. It is generally expected that a defendant should not be held indefinitely without a prosecutor, so it's possible that the court may eventually dismiss the case if a prosecutor cannot be found within a reasonable time frame. However, it is important to consult with a lawyer to understand the specific laws and processes in your jurisdiction.


How long can the police wait before charging you for drug distribution?

they can wait 42 hours before officially pressing charges. Then there will be a preliminary case with a judge, defendant and party, and prosecutor. The prelim is designed to see if there is enough evidence to actually take the trial to jury. If the evidence is deemed sufficient, then the case is presented to a "grand jury" which will either indict the defendant or find there is not enough evidence to indict and throw the case out. If the defendant is indicted a court date will be set and that can take a very long time.

Criminal case dismissed. Will it be reopened. How long could DA wait for reopening it. Is there any risk of trying to expunge the arrest record now?

There are several means by which cases can be "dismissed." After a case has been actually presented to court, a judge can do two of them: 'Dismissal WITH Prejudice' and 'Dismissal WITHOUT Prejudice." WITH prejudice means that the prosecutor CANNOT re institute the charge again. WITHOUT prejudice means that the prosecutor CAN re-institute the charges if a minor correction to the case is made to correct a minor legal defect. ALSO - the prosecutor, for whatever reason, may NOLLE PROSSE a case before it is even presented to court. A Nolle Prossed case CAN be re-instituted without double jeopardy being involved. Make certain you know in which way your case was handled and disposed of. It is VERY important.

Yes, a District Court prosecutor can add a misdemeanor charge to a felony charge in the same case, as long as the facts support both charges. This can provide the prosecutor with more flexibility in seeking a conviction or plea deal.


How long do it take a case that is nolle pros to be dismissed in the state of Maryland?

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."
