I am confused by that. It sounds like you're basically saying the charges were put on hold. She was told the case was dismissed. So can they reopen it afterwards? Doesn't another incident have to occur?

What I am saying is that they might choose to reopen it. Perhaps the report did not get to the DA by the time of arraignment, so they chose not to file at that time. If so, they can file again. There are a number of possibilities. Now, if the DA had the reports and chose not to file based upon all the facts, then the odds of her being charged absent new information is about nil.
