When charges are dropped then you are free to go
Sometimes charges can be dropped against someone even after an affidavit has been signed. It will really depend on the charges and city and state.
YOU cannot have the charges dropped by yourself. Such an assault is a crime against the state and only the prosecutor can 'drop' the charges. If you are a reluctant 'complaining witness' speak to the prosecutor about your hesitation to go forward.
When charges are dismissed, it means that the legal case against a person has been dropped and they are no longer facing criminal prosecution for those specific charges.
Not enough information to answer. WHAT charges? WHO filed them? WHAT offense? Re-word with more information and re-submit please.
No. The Fifth amendment applies to giving testimony against yourself. Since the charges against you were dropped, you have no protection against self-incrimination. You are now simply a witness to the events in or at the bar and can be forced to testify.
you go to jail and have charges pressed against you
false charges
Yes and No, No. not legally, resisting arrest is what they say when they have no other charges to pin on you. but yes as it happens all the time but charges are always dropped
You go to trail
When you are arrested and the charges are dropped, the state does not automatically pick up the case against you. The prosecution may decide not to pursue the case due to lack of evidence or other reasons. However, law enforcement could still conduct further investigations, and new evidence could potentially lead to future charges. Ultimately, the decision to prosecute rests with the state, based on the circumstances at the time.
Assuming that you mean the charges were originally taken by the victim and dropped by or at the request of the victim, Then if the state (in GA at least) motions to prosecute (typically domestics) on behalf of the state, then the charges stand and the victim takes on the role of victim/witness in stead of victim/complainant. The state can continue to pursue domestic violence charges and prosecution in domestic situations now due to laws adopted after years of battered spouses dropping charges against their abusers because of fear and misguided loyalty.
Normally if the bad checks are included in bankruptcy the charges will be dropped. I really hope this helps you. I filed before charges were filed against me but I have a friend that had 4 outstanding payday loans and they had filed charges for bad checks. The charges were dropped immediately.
