They may accept a notarized waiver of prosecution form which you should be able to get from the state attorney's office.

If not I could fax you the one I use.

If you need more than that you will probably have to wait for the court date and get a copy of the court disposition.

Best of luck.

Re: Dropped charges

Keep in mind, what you were charged with may have something to do with your re-instatement as well. You didn't say what you were arrested for.
