Elkhart, IN asked in Criminal Law for Indiana

Q: Hi. I realized I have a pending criminal conversion case from 2014, how can I get it dismissed?

Hi. I realized I have a pending criminal conversion case from 2014, all fees were paid, my community hours were done BUT I did not submit them to the prosecutors office and the case has been pending. What can I do to dismiss this case? I have all my documents, including the community hour sheets signed off by the person in charge of the location I went to do them. Please advice.

A: Much will depend on the prosecutor’s office and how they decide to handle this situation. If you were in a pre trial diversion program, you have likely been terminated from it. I agree with Mr. Bennett. You really should contact a criminal defense attorney who regularly practices in the county where your case is pending.
