Not necessarily. "Without Prejudice" means that it is possible to re-introduce the same charge in a slightly altered form. "WITH prejudice" would mean that it was done away with entirely and could not be brought up again.

What is a dismissed conviction?

It means just what the wod implies, they were dismissed. However- there are two types of dismissal; dismissal WITH prejudice, and dismissal WITHOUT prejudice. "With" means that the charge "goes away" and that particular charge cannot be re-instituted. "Without" means that although the charge was dismissed you CAN be re-charged once again. You definitely need to find out which one applies to you. A "dismissed" conviction does not mean that you're found "not guilty," or were "pardoned." The record will appear on your criminal history record.

Were the 6 charges dismissed WITH PREJUDICE, or dismissed WITHOUT PREJUDICE? If they were dismiessed WITH prejudice they can NOT be used against the defendant again. If they were dismissed WITHOUT prejudice, that means they COULD be brought up again (albeit in slightly different form) and used against him again.
