More details to this question:
The arrest occurred 05/1999, it was remanded back to municipal court, and went dormant. They never pursued case. Upon my son seeking an expungement it has come to light their error and they are now pursuing case.

We would argue that the statute of limitations and the basic sense of fairness dictate that the charges be dismissed. The witnesses are either not available or cannot remember. You should be able to have the charges dismissed. Why is the case being pursued ? Ed Dimon
