Q: Can I file a motion to dismiss if the victim says I didn't steal her check.

I am being charged possession of Forged instrument. The plaintiff remembers writting the check now. I have a lawyer. Is there anything you can tell me besides I need to contact a lawyer that might help me? How can I be charged if she now remembers writting the check?

A: Just because the alleged victim wants to drop the charge doesn’t mean the Commonwealth will. You need to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
