Hi there, If the MassCourts website reflects that your case is closed, it should also contain information as to the reason it was closed. It is possible that the court dismissed your case in absentia given the low-level nature of the offense.  It is also possible that the notation that your case was closed reflects an administrative error rather than a decision of the court.  It is difficult to speculate as to what the "closed" status truly means without seeing the actual docket report.  If you like, feel free to contact me so that I can pull the court record and help you make sense of what occurred.  You can also pull your docket report again and review the docket text to see if you can gain any further insight as to where you stand with your case.
