Re: Crimanal complaint

They can drop the case, remand it back to municipal court or indict the person anyway. I suggest you get an attorney to help ensure that the case works out in your favor. You can call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss.

Re: Crimanal complaint

On a criminal complaint the State of New Jersey is the plaintiff. The complainant is merely a witness. A change of heart on the part of the complainant can cause the prosecutor's office to allow a dismissal or it may not.

Call me if you like.
