18. Could without prejudice mean just that it is done

without examining the actual charges? Thus if the charges are viable they can be resubmitted by a legitimate prosecutor.

As such, ANY other reason, and there are many, to reject the charges have not been examined. Shouldn't "without prejudice" go both ways?

Has the judge made note of the expiration date? The idea that ANY indictment, even if sloppy or be an illegitimate prosecutor stops the clock is a very bad precedent. Imagine a prosecutor does not have a viable case and the statute of limitations ends very soon. Getting an indictment with a shaky case could buy them 6 more months.
