Fraud, Embezzlement, Bad Checks Can I have charges dropped and off my record for embezzlment charges?

[Tonyad2981]

In June 2012 I was fired from my job for embezzlement, I was never arrested but a police officer called me and I never agreed to speak with him. In January of 2013 I found out that charges were filed and an arrest warrant issued and vacated by the judge on the day issued. The case still shows active 9 months later, I have never been arrested or brought to court to answer. its been over a year since this thing has been going on. Do I have a right to have charges dismissed based on lack of a speedy trial?

If there is a warrant active, it will sit until you appear or they arrest you.

If the order (arrest warrant in your example) has been vacated, it no longer exists.

Bottom line, if true, there is no warrant out for you.

Call a local bail bondsman and ask him to verify if a warrant exists for your arrest. Find out how much the bail is, or if there is no bail. He'll let you know, without risking arrest, if a warrant exists.

It seems you have not been formally charged with a crime. There is nothing to dismiss.

There is no rule for dismising, you just ask about the bail. and talk about arrest warrant.
