Re: Drug charges

If the matter was dismissed WITHOUT prejudice, as it appears from the facts, the prosecutor can refile the case.

I would advise you to get a copy of the police reports, investigative reports, witness statements etc (and a discovery order) and decide whether to hold or waive the exam.

Memories fade and witnesses (even police witnesses) may be difficult to find.

The 3 year period may also give you some ammunition to work out a deal which may avoid a trial and possible prison time if convicted.
