Of course, the judge still has to agree to this before they can do it.

Interesting...I read and heard that the dismissal was WITH prejudice meaning that charges COULDN NOT ever be filed again.
Still researching.

OK from an ABCNEWS article here:

The charge was dismissed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled at a future date. Bryant's statement was issued with the understanding it cannot be used in the civil suit the woman has filed against him.
