It means that (for whatever reason) the prosecutor's office has decided not to pursue these charges against you. It is known as a "Nolle Prosequi." There is usually good reeason for this - either you have a cut a deal for a "plea bargain" to a lesser offense, or the charges are being withdrawn because there is not enough useable evidence to sustain them in court. Or - they are being withdrawn to be filed again at a later date.

What does it mean when charges are dropped abandoned?

It sounds very much like the case was "Nolled." (i.e.- a 'Nolle Prosequi' was entered by the prosecutor after making the decision to not pursue the charge. It was therefore - dropped/abandoned.)

How can one be arrested when case is nolled?

Technically, one cannot be arrested when a case is nol prossed (nolled, nollied). Actually, though, one COULD be arrested again, if the proper paperwork has not arrived where it should (the clerk's office, the sheriff's office, the probation office, etc.).If a new case has been filed on the same incident, one can be arrested again.Additional: The final sentence of the first answer is absolutely correct.Just because the prosecutor declines to prosecute the offense you were charged with (Nolle Prosequi), does not make it 'go away.' A Nolle is NOT a court dismissal of the case, and in the event subsequent information or evidence comes to light, you can be re-arrested on that same charge. This is NOT double jeapordy.

What kind of charges can be brought up for a secret inditment?

First of all, an indictment is only "secret" while the Grand Jury is hearing testimony on it. Once it is issued and served it is no longer 'secret.' Occasionally "Special Grand Juries" are empaneled to hear charges of a particularly sensitive nature, the leakage of which might obstruct or ruin ongoing investigations. An example might be organized crime and racketeering indictments, or national security issues could be another. However under the US system of justice once the indictments are handed down and served on the accused the charges are no longer secret and the cases are tried in open court.
