Prosecutors To Ask Judge To Dismiss Bryant Case

Breaking:

DENVER -- The prosecutors in the Kobe Bryant case will ask that the charges for the Los Angeles Lakers basketball star be dismissed without prejudice, 7NEWS reported Wednesday afternoon.

To file a case without prejudice means that prosecutors can refile charges at a later date. The judge will have to rule on the prosecution's motion before the case can be officially dismissed.

Earlier in the day, Bryant's defense attorneys had filed a motion to dimiss the case, claiming that prosecutors intentionally withheld information favorable to their client.
