When the prosecution refuses to prosecute a case what does that mean?

Nolle Prosequi.Nolle prosequi is a Latin term meaning "we shall no longer prosecute". It is a declaration made by a prosecutor in a criminal case or by a plaintiff in a civil lawsuit either before or during trial, meaning the case against the defendant is being dropped. The declaration may be made because the charges cannot be proved, the evidence has demonstrated either innocence or a fatal flaw in the prosecution's claim, or the prosecutor has reason to believe that the accused is not guilty. It is generally made after indictment, but it is not a guarantee that the person won't be reindicted

Why would a prosecutor refuse to prosecute?

Answer Prosecutors don't usually prosecute a case unless they have enough evidence to convict the person on trial. That would probably be the only way that they wouldn't go to trial as it's very costly to the State for someone to go free when the Prosecution thought they had a good case. Two cases in such were the Micheal Jackson case and the famous Simpson case in which cases both defendants were cleared off all charges. Those two trials probably cost more money than it takes to put a rocket in space.
