The District Attorney’s Officer, since the shooting, asked for as many as six continuances for Yamba on the charges.
The district justice said he had no other choice but to drop the charges on Wednesday after the district attorney showed up without the victim, witnesses or subpoenas.
According to the district justice, after six months, if the ADA has not presented any witnesses or at least subpoena witnesses, charges can be dismissed.
Yamba remains in jail on federal counterfeiting charges.
