FAQ
Whereas a case that is dismissed “with prejudice” is dismissed permanently, a case that is dismissed “without prejudice” is only dismissed temporarily. This temporary dismissal means that the plaintiff is allowed to re-file charges, alter the claim, or bring the case to another court.
In the formal legal world, a court case that is dismissed with prejudice means that it is dismissed permanently. A case dismissed with prejudice is over and done with, once and for all, and can't be brought back to court. A case dismissed without prejudice means the opposite. It's not dismissed forever.
Dismissal without prejudice means that the judge dismissed the plaintiff's or prosecutor's case without damaging their right to have their matter heard in court later. A prosecutor may ask to withdraw the case against a person to have more time to make a case stronger, find more evidence or question other witnesses.
“Dismissed without prejudice” is a legal term that means a case is dismissed but can still be refiled at a later point. Both civil and criminal cases can be dismissed without prejudice.
The purpose and intended effect of the words “without prejudice” is to prohibit a party from using the doctrine of res judicata (from the Latin, “a thing decided”) in any later actions on the subject matter.
Voluntary and Involuntary Case Dismissals Most commonly, a defendant will file a motion to dismiss if they believe there is a lack of evidence, improper jurisdiction, a breach of the statute of limitations or if they believe the other party is not complying with a court order.
Fortunately, in Arizona, there are time limits for re-filing misdemeanor charges after dismissal without prejudice. The state has up to one year from the date of the offense or six months from the date of dismissal, whichever is longer, to re-file the charges.
Arson, terrorism and unlawful use of infectious biological substance or radiological agent have no statute of limitations. Although most drug offenses are prosecutable for seven years, if an individual was significantly injured or killed, then charges can potentially be brought indefinitely.
How Does Dismissal Without Prejudice Affect the Statute of Limitations? It has virtually no effect on the statute of limitations for your alleged crime. It neither stops the clock nor resets it; it's as if the original charges were never filed.
Steps to potentially get charges dismissed Hire an experienced criminal defense attorney. Gather evidence and witness statements. Challenge the prosecution's evidence. Negotiate with the prosecutor.
