Case Status Clarification

Summary

A closed/cleared case in North Carolina does not automatically mean dismissal in Federal Court. Federal and state courts operate independently. Unlawful search and seizure could be a violation of your Fourth Amendment rights, but certain exceptions may apply. Federal courts do not need consent to prosecute a case, although evidence obtained without consent may be challenged. Consult a lawyer for specific advice.
