The question is worded unclearly. A paternity (DNA) test is a scientifically proven and court accepted test, the results of which cannot" be dismissed by a judge (i.e.: It is what it is).
On the other hand, if as a result of the test, it was the paternity case itself that was dismissed with prejudice, it means that the case was thrown out and can never again be brought back to court.
There are two ways in which a judge can "dismiss" a case.Dismissed with prejudice, which means the case can never be brought up again, and dismissed without prejudice, which means that the government can re-file the case if some certain minor flaw in the original presentment is remedied.It sounds like your original case was dismissed WITHOUT prejudice.
No, only the prosecutor can issue a Nolle Prossequi (I decline to prosecute) - and only a judgecan issue a dismissal.
Not necessarily. "Without Prejudice" means that it is possible to re-introduce the same charge in a slightly altered form. "WITH prejudice" would mean that it was done away with entirely and could not be brought up again.
More info required from questioner - what do you mean by "dismiss" a criminal record.
Claims of parentship
Prejudice is a legal term which means there was misconduct on the part of the person who filed the case and they are, therefore, forbidden to refile. Dismissal of a case with prejudice is final, and the plaintiff is barred from taking any further action.
It sounds like stealing to me.
Dismiss
No, it is not. Dismiss is a verb, which can mean release (a class, a subordinate) or ignore (a threat, a court case), or terminate, fire (an employee).
When someone says that prejudice prevails they mean that prejudice has won. This means that justice was not found for example.
Other words that mean prejudice include bias, discrimination, and intolerance.
It means nothing, dismiss it.
