How This High Court Case Could Affect Police Abuse Suits By Marco Poggio | April 4, 2021, 8:02 PM EDT Attorneys all seem to agree: When a prosecutor dismisses charges against a defendant, that s an ultimate win. The defendant can heave a sigh of relief, and walk free without the burden of a trial and the potential costs associated with it. But to criminal defendants who allege police misconduct and plan to file civil lawsuits, a dismissal could mean doom.
