 dismissals are cases where we were able to get the prosecutor to dismiss the charges before we went to a jury trial so this is not a jury finding an acquittal which we have numerous acquittals but this is convincing a prosecutor to drop the charges for example we've had several where Lisa Randall she was a high profile capital murder case where they were seeking to kill her they were claiming that she killed a four month old baby while that baby was in her care as a daycare provider they were completely wrong we were able to prove that it was a medical rule out that this child had a virus was incredibly sick and basically died of a SIDS-like incident this case was not only dismissed but it was dismissed with prejudice which means they could never refile the case against her down the road and that's very rare this means that she could go on and live her life without the fear of looking over her shoulder for the rest of her life most cases are dismissed without prejudice which means they have a certain amount of time to refile them or in a murder case if new evidence came to light 20 years later they could refile them but we have lots and lots of cases that have been dismissed everything from capital murder down to simple DUIs simply go through our website and find the situation that applies to you
