I have read conflicting definitions of Nolle pros. It would apear that my lawyer misguided me as well for that matter.

so here is the question.

Is a entry of Nolle Pros in anyway like an aquittal?

I have seen arguments saying yes and others saying no and both sides have posed valid points.

My lawyer said it was just as if the case had been dissmised.

I have read that because there is no conviction or guilty verdict that it is similar to an aquittal.

I have read no its not because if for some off chance the state wanted to open the case again they could.

so is it just a way to drop the charges and be done with a case without the state having to admit I am inocent and doesnt mean anything other than the charges are droped providing I dont give the state any reason to open it up again?

this is in Florida
