Legal Question in Criminal Law in Pennsylvania
dropping charges after papers are filed?
My mother and my boyfriend got into a fight resulting in him breaking her computer monitor. She called the police and filed a claim against him. She now wants to drop charges and settle it outside of court, but is it possible to drop the charges after we have already received the papers?

If there is no victim, there is no crime.
