How do you get dismissed from a grand jury?
I think you would have to go before a judge and state your case why you should be dismissed. I was asked to be on my local grand jury and had an interview with a judge before hand and I know you sign on for 2 years to be on the jury. I don't think they will let you off with a flimsy excuse.

Does no bill mean case is dismissed?
"No Bill" typically means the grand jury refused to indict a suspect for a felony charge. I don't know if the district attorney, or federal prosecutor can continue to grand jury shop the indictment or not after this. A competent attorney in your area could tell you for certain what the likely outcome is of the return of a "no bill".
They have 60 days to endite him if they cant prove it do they have to let him go?
There is a different standard of proof in seeking an indictment than that which prevails in criminal trials. At trial, the prosecution must prove all elements of the crime "beyond a reasonable doubt". To obtain an indictment the prosecution must merely prove that "more likely than not" a crime was committed, and "more likely than not" the defendant did it. The defendant gets no right be heard before the Grand Jury, no right to even know if or when they are considering indicting him. The prosecutor runs the show and the Grand Jury hears only what he wants them to hear in considering whether to issue an indictment. If they really want to the prosecutors can get anyone indicted for anything.
