In a democracy, the makers of laws: normally the legislature of a country or state but also municipal bodies such as city councils. Lawmakers define the prohibited activities and frequently the penalties for their violation.

The body you described is called a Grand Jury.
In a civil case, the jury decides whether the defendant is liable or not liable for the alleged harm or wrongdoing. In a criminal case, the jury decides whether the defendant is guilty or not guilty of committing a crime. The standard of proof is higher in a criminal case (beyond a reasonable doubt) compared to a civil case (preponderance of the evidence).
Criminal cases in the U.S. are heard at a district court. The judge here then decides whether the matter is serious enough to be passed to the state court.
A criminal case will not go to trial if the defendant pleads guilty at a preliminary hearing or if the prosecution decides to discontinue the case (usually because they think the evidence is not strong enough for a reasonable chance of conviction).
When an inmate files a suit against the prison and its over a matter that isnt or legally a crime, someones oatmeal wasnt hot enough or something to that extent.
If a prosecutor decides not to prosecute a case, it means that they have chosen not to pursue criminal charges against the accused individual. This decision could be based on various factors, such as lack of evidence, insufficient proof of guilt, or other legal considerations.
The term NOLLE PROSEQUI is used in criminal court and describes an entry in a criminal case when the prosecutor of the case decides (for whatever reason) not to prosecute the charge. It's not clear to me why the questioner is linking a "nolle" to "disciplinary charges."
