what i meant was that hte original citation had a first appearance court date. It is not till july 7th but if my lawyer says the case was dismissed so i do not need to appear?

my case has been dismissed. Do i still need to appear in court on the assigned date?

nobody new she was stealing the stuff..She gave it to people as birthday gifts, etc..so i dont see how anyone could know or be responsible for her actions?..there are a lot of people she gave things to. Her position was in pricing/recieving of merch. so everyone assumed it was legal.

I have a friend. She has a problem..stealing stuff..She worked for a retailer and over a year stole thousands and thousands in merchandise, unlawful returns and refunds, tag switching (easy for her since she worked in price control department). Sometimes she would give me free stuff and say she...

I have another question. At some point in the conversation my lawyer asked if i was wanting to get this exponged after a year and a half. Do people exponge cases marked "dismissed" or is it for the ones that plead guilty and got convicted?. By the way, i have a friend that has an extensive...

oh, ok. The reason why i am asking is because i do not want to put all my trust in one person..as far as i know $ 500 cant buy you much nowadays..

oh, and what is the difference between "dismissed" and "voluntarily dismissed"?.. :rolleyes:

I am a little confused, you are correct. When i spoke with my lawyer he told me that if i did the divirsion that would show up on my record as "Dismissed due to deferred prosecution" or such. That is why he said it would not be such a good thing for me. He said that he thinks he can get a...

what are some of the common reasons why the case would be dismissed (aside from using one of the divirsion programms)?..i am just wondering why do cases where there is evidence, like a tape or cases where smb is caught redhanded get dismissed?..

so how is it possible to get the dismissal?. do i still have to plea smth, like no contest?..I have heard about shoplifting cases where the people showed up for court and were told that their case was dimissed?. does that mean the da dint want to prosecute or the store dropped charges?. i am...

does that mean he is going to try and work with DA?..what are the odds of da to just dismiss a case? is it common?

he charged me a flat fee of 500 for the case..Not sure, but the attorney is known as a "pretty boy'" in court and in good standing with DA. I just do not understad how the dismissal would work in my case?
