I'm not totally sure, but I don't believe that there is one. Technically you are a free person and without charge. But, if/when the prosecutor once again has sufficient information to charge you, he may do so. Best thing - have your attorney petition the court to have the charge totally dismissed for "Want of Prosecutiron.'

Can a creditor lawsuit for debt be refiled at a later date if it was dismissed 'without prejudice'?
Yes, that's what 'without prejudice' means. When something is dismissed with prejudice, this is due to some kind of misconduct on the side of the party making the claim. They're then disallowed from refiling it. However if it's dismissed without prejudice, often due to a precedural error, it can be refiled.

If a case in Small Claims was dismissed with no prejudice, the plaintiff typically has the opportunity to refile within the statute of limitations period for that particular claim. The specific time frame for refiling will depend on the laws in the jurisdiction where the claim was filed. It is advisable for the plaintiff to consult with an attorney or research the specific laws in their area for accurate guidance.

No, not without refiling another "13".

If it was struck for cause, then no. If it was struck for other reasons, then maybe. The court will usually indicate in its ruling whether refiling is permitted by noting that it gives the parties leave to refile or that the claim is "dismissed without prejudice."

What if a closed case doesn't state with or without prejudice?
Depending upon the Rules of Civil Procedure and the governing case law of the State involved, there are a few possibilities. 1. If the case was voluntarily dismissed by the Plaintiff, the first dismissal is usually without prejudice. It can be refilled as long as the statute of limitations does not expire before the refiling. 2. If the case is closed after a determination on the merits, such as by the grant of a summary judgment, unless the ruling is appealed successfully, the closing of the file would be with prejudice. 3. If the case was closed by virtue of the court granting a motion to dismiss (usually the Plaintiff is given a chance to amend the complaint, but he may not), the same rule as in #1 above would apply.

That depends. If you mean that you were found not guilty, then no. That would be considered double jeopardy which is illegal. They can, however; charge you with other crimes as long as they dont rely on the original crime heavily as evidence.

What is Dismiss without Prejudice?
In short it means that the case was dismissed inconclusively. There may have been missing evidence or procedural requirements not met, and therefore the case could potentially be brought before the court again by the parties involved. It is an order issued by a judge actually dismissing the charges that were brought in the case - usually for some legal insufficiency, or lack of evidence, in the case itself. Dismissal WITHOUT Prejudice means that the charges MAY be re-instituted and brought before court again AFTER the legal insufficiency is cured. It is usually a term used in the context of case being dismissed. The significance of it is that the Plaintiff/Prosecution retains the right to re-file the lawsuit a second time. A case can be dismissed without prejudice by the judge (such as, if he or she grants a motion to dismiss filed by the defendant--but in such a case, the plaintiff/prosecution usually will be given the right amend the complaint (restate the allegations of the lawsuit), or it can be voluntarily dismissed altogether by the plaintiff/prosecutor. In many jurisdictions, a second voluntary dismissal by a plaintiff will preclude any subsequent refiling of the cause of action, but that is governed by local law.

This basically means that the case was withdrawn for some reason, but it can be refiled at a later date. Rather than the term non-suit, the word dismissal may be used. An important factor to consider regarding refiling the case is that it must be done within the applicable statute of limitations period. These are prescribed by statute which vary by state and vary according to the nature of the cause of action.
