What is pending federal indictment?
A pending federal indictment refers to a formal accusation that a person has committed a federal crime, which is currently awaiting legal proceedings. This occurs after a grand jury reviews evidence and decides there is enough to charge the individual. The indictment outlines the specific charges and allows the case to move forward in the federal court system. Until resolved, the individual remains under legal scrutiny and may face various legal consequences.
Does a federal inditimet ever go away?
A federal indictment does not simply go away; it remains part of the public record unless it is dismissed or the charges are resolved through acquittal or plea deal. If a defendant is acquitted or the case is dropped, the indictment is effectively nullified, but the record still exists. In some cases, individuals may seek to have their indictment expunged, but this process can be complex and is not guaranteed. Overall, an indictment carries long-term legal implications unless formally addressed.

Is it legal for a prosecutor to amend an indictment without notice to Grand Jury?
I have no idea if it is legal or not in your jurisdiction. I know of one case where the judge amended the indictment. The defendant was found guilty on the modified indictment. After the post conviction appeals under state law were exhausted, he submitted a petition for a federal writ of habeas corpus. The federal judge sent the case back to the trial court for resentencing on the original indictment. In that particular case, the federal judge said it was not legal. I have no idea if federal law has been changed or not since then. (At the time you got one crack at the federal court. If you had not exhausted state remedies the judge told you and told you to try there. After you tried there if you came back you got sorry you have already been to federal court. While congress only wrote that law for 4th amendment issues, the judges had applied it across the board!)
When to capitalize the indictment?
Capitalize "indictment" when referring to a specific indictment by name or number, but not when used in a general sense. For example, "The Smith indictment" versus "The indictment against the defendant."
