You were arrested by Officer K M Curtis in Virginia Beach, and the numbers suggest you had a better-than-average chance of having your case dismissed. Across 168 arrests, Curtis's cases are dismissed nearly 60% of the time—significantly higher than Virginia's statewide average of 35%. This puts Curtis in the top tier of officers statewide for dismissal rates, meaning cases from this officer tend not to result in convictions more often than typical. That said, a 40% conviction rate still means four out of every ten arrests do lead to guilty verdicts, so the outcome isn't guaranteed either way.

Your charge type matters considerably here. If you were arrested for larceny or theft, you're looking at a 50% dismissal rate—better than statewide averages but lower than some other charges Curtis handles. Weapons offenses from Curtis have a 36% dismissal rate, the lowest among his common charges. However, if your case falls under "other" charges or grand larceny specifically, dismissal rates jump to around 81-86%, suggesting those cases face more substantial obstacles during prosecution.
