just let the police know. Answer Go to the particular police that charges were filed with and tell them that you would like to drop the charges. If the person has other offenses, sometimes the police will not drop the charges even though you want to...such as assault, domestic violence, etc. They can take over at some point and it will not matter if you wish to drop charges. If it is an isolated incident, usually they will drop the charges at your request. It depends on the situation, the police agency.

How long do you have to file domestic violence charges in Oklahoma if you have witnesses and photographs of the incident?
You should file those charges immediately. If you wait, the court will wonder why you waited if the situation was serious enough to file charges.

You should have filed a police report immediately and the police would have taken photos. It is puzzling that you would want to wait to press charges. The longer you wait the less attention you will get.
