The correct terminology is "dismissed." Only a judge can legally dismiss a case, and it is usually done when, in their opinion, there are insufficient legal grounds to proceed against the defendant.

Actually, there is another method by which a case may not go forward, and that is if the Prosecutor files a Nolle Prosequi which in plain English means that the prosecutor's office declines to prosecute the case. This may also be due to legal insufficiency of the probable cause, the evidence needed to convict, or some other (occasionaly 'political') reason.
