Here's the story: I need to know, in detail if possible, what exactly happens when a criminal case is "disposed" of. This is very important to me and I need to obtain as much information as possible. If it helps any I am a resident of Georgia so I need Georgia specifics. Please, if you do NOT know anything about this don't answer the question! Any advice is welcome as long as it's not the following: Ask your attorney or I don't know! Sorry if I'm being rude just need ANSWERS! As for the charge: Deposit Account Fraud (bad check) that has reached it's limitation (the warrant is over four years old). Thanks for your help!

The case has been thrown out. It no longer exists. Its like if you get a traffic ticket, and you fight it in court and the Judge grants you a disposition, the ticket never existed, and it WILL NOT be on your record.

In other words, "Your off the hook"

[barraq]

In a generic usage as an adjective it means: eager, inclined to, prone, ready, receptive, willing, all meaning having a certain tendency (i.e.: The court is 'disposed' to look favorably upon the motion.) In this sense, disposed is related to an inclination or tendency.
