"Prosecutors are poised to file what's called a Dismissal On Recommendation motion, which will say the indictment against the frisky Frenchman cannot be proven beyond a reasonable doubt because of credibility problems with the sole witness in the case, Strauss-Kahn's hotel-maid accuser.
[. . .]
Prosecution sources said the motion, also called a Recommendation for Dismissal, will be lengthy, thorough and carefully crafted.
[. . .]
Judges always grant such motions immediately, experts said,
[. . .]
"When it's the DA asking for dismissal, it's never denied," said veteran defense lawyer Michael Shapiro, who got a motion to dismiss in Manhattan last year
[. . .]
"I suppose a judge technically could deny it," Shapiro said. "But then no one would show up to prosecute the case on the next court date."
Shapiro -- who has been a defense lawyer for 38 years, [. . .] called prosecutor motions to dismiss "as rare as hen's teeth."
