Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The original allegation may be unfounded; the evidence to be introduced may have been unlawfully
obtained, making a conviction impossible; or a material witness may no longer be available to testify.
Dismissals have also been granted to a defendant to allow testimony against codefendants.
