The dismissal of criminal charges takes place by way of a motion from the prosecution called, ânolle prosequi.â. A motion to nolle pros a case is a Latin term meaning roughly, âno more prosecution.â When the prosecution decides to drop charges, it will make a motion to nolle prosequi the charges.
Notice shall not be sent if either the defendant or the defendant's attorney was present in court when the nolle prosequi was entered. If notice is required, the clerk may send one notice that lists all of the charges that were dismissed. (b) Effect of nolle prosequi. When a nolle prosequi has been entered on a charge, any conditions of pretrial release on that charge are terminated, and any bail bond posted for the defendant on that charge shall be released.
