Dismissal without prejudice

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Criminal Law lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
When something is dismissed without prejudice, that means that another complaint can be filed.  If the matter was dismissed with prejudice, that means another complaint cannot be filed.  So no, it does not violate double jeopardy, which only means you cannot be tried for the same crime twice.  Getting something dismissed means there was no trial.

How can I have the charges of possession of marijuana and petty theft dropped?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
The best thing to do is hire an aggressive criminal defense attorney in your area. The attorney will do his or her best to get one or both of the charges dropped. There might be search issues and you may well resolve the case by agreeing to a deferred prosecution.
