I have officially been cleared of all charges and the lawsuit against me has been “Dismissed with predjudice”

Having never been a defendant(besides for one traffic violation as a wee lad), or been sued for that matter I was unsure what that actually meant.  First thought, the charges were dropped and they’re not happy about it.  What it actually means… When a case is dismissed for good reason and the plaintiff is barred from bringing an action on the same claim.  Hoooray, no more silly law suits.

And if you have no idea what i’m talking about, I got dragged into a law suit for my accident that happened 2+ years ago (lawsuit was filed 1 day before the statute of limitations was met, convenient ehh).  The plaintiff said that I caused injury to her by hitting her car from behind after the Mini van had hit her head on.  Except by that time her car had already left the highway, crossed the ditch and ended up in a field. The only vehicle I hit was the dust buster-esque mini van that was careening towards me in my lane after hitting the plaintiffs car.

Justice was serverd!! (at least in my side of the case)
