Yes, the filing of an affidavit of non-prosecution can help convince the State to reduce or dismiss a charge. However, nothing is guaranteed by the mere filing of this statement, as it really depends on the particular circumstances of a given case. I would recommend you discuss this situation with a local criminal defense attorney.
