Definition of Nolle Prosequi. Nolle Prosequi is a Latin term that means âno longer prosecute.â In Maryland, when the State enters a nolle prosequi, it means that the State is electing not to pursue the case and is dropping the charges. At this point, the case becomes closed.
6. In civil cases, a nolle prosequi may be entered as to one of several counts; 7 Wend. 301; or to one of several defendants; 1 Pet. R. 80; as in the case of a joint contract, where one of two defendants pleads infancy, the plaintiff may enter a nolle prosequi, as to him, and proceed against the other.
