the court gave up when they found out I'm not paying them for a bogus charge.
@Andyhohmann I'm confused. I had no idea that we as citzens can refuse to pay a ticket, etc. to the court system and they will oblige. Of course, I know we don't have to pay if we are found not guilty or charges are dropped. But, I did not know that we can refuse to pay from the beginning and that refusal could result in charges being dropped. I think there could be another reason for your dropped charges, maybe lack of evidence or something similar.
