Three Nolle Prosequis in One Day: A Victory for Our Clients

Three Nolle Prosequis in One Day: A Victory for Our Clients

On September 10, 2025, our firm achieved a significant milestone by securing three separate nolle prosequis in a single day. Often referred to as nolle pros or nol pros, this outcome represents the State’s formal decision to discontinue prosecution and dismiss charges against a defendant.

What Is a Nolle Prosequi?
Nolle prosequi is a Latin term meaning “will no longer prosecute.” In criminal cases, it is entered when the State determines it cannot or should not move forward, often due to conflicting evidence, credibility issues, or a strong defense that undermines the prosecution’s case. For our clients, a nolle pros means the charges are dropped and the burden of prosecution is lifted.

Why It Matters
Criminal charges, whether misdemeanor or felony, can disrupt every aspect of a person’s life. Reputations, careers, finances, and family stability are all at stake. A nolle pros brings relief, closure, and the opportunity to move forward without the shadow of unresolved accusations. While securing one is always meaningful, achieving three in one day reflects diligent preparation, strategic advocacy, and an unwavering commitment to our clients.

Our Commitment
At Michael P. Maddux, P.A., we never lose sight of the fact that every case represents a real person and a future worth protecting. Securing three nolle prosequis in one day is more than a legal victory. It is a reminder of why we do this work: to defend our clients’ rights and help them reclaim their lives.
