`1`nolle prosequi `2`
"Nolo Everybody's Legal Dictionary":
Latin for "we shall no longer prosecute." At trial, this is an entry made on the record by a prosecutor in a criminal case stating that he will no longer pursue the matter. An entry of nolle prosequi may be made at any time after charges are brought and before a verdict is returned or a plea entered. Essentially, it is an admission on the part of the prosecution that some aspect of its case against the defendant has fallen apart. Most of the time, prosecutors need a judge抯 permission to 搉ol-pros?a case. (See Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 48a.) Abbreviated 搉ol. pros.?or 搉ol-pros.?
