Final Dispositions

Prosecutor Completion of Final Disposition

The Final Disposition Reports are initiated by the contributing/arresting agency and forwarded with the appropriate case papers to the prosecutor.  The prosecutor will receive a Final Disposition Report completed from the arresting agency.  The prosecutor should make no changes to the information already completed on the final disposition by the contributing/arresting agency.  If the charge is changed, amended, or revised that fact should be reflected by completing the charge blocks on the lower left side and/or the final disposition block on the right side of the form.  If proceedings commence, the Final Disposition Report must be forwarded with the case papers to the Clerk of Court.

An amended charge or reduced to city ordinance is not a final disposition.  In these cases the prosecutor  should forward the Final Disposition Report with the case files to the appropriate municipal court officer for completion when a final disposition is reached.

Fields completed by prosecutor – offense change

If the prosecutor reaches the final disposition with  no court involvement, he/she must complete the final disposition areas on the right side of the Final Disposition Report form.  Examples would include No Prosecution, a First Offender or Diversion program, as long as entry in and completion of such program occurred without a document charging the defendant being filed with the court.

Fields completed by prosecutor - no prosecution

See section Final Disposition Content for interpretation of each "data block."
