What does it mean when you go to court and you are handed a paper that says Not Indicted at this time, please call for your next court date. Can you be indicted at a later date?
Answer
That means the Grand Jury returned what is known as a "no true bill" in that they could not agree on having an Indictment filed. The District Attorney is free to present the issue to a new grand jury provided the statute of limitations does not expire between the time of the first consideration and the date the new grand jury is empanelled and considers the charge(s).
