What does Nolle Prosequi mean?
Someone filed a warrant for abusive language. The “victim” did not show up. The district attorney tried to get in touch with him and the judge dismissed the charges, however, when I looked on-line to see what was put for public records it says my final disposition is Nolle Prosequi.
