I haven't read anywhere that charges have been dropped.  This is a case 
where they
agreed to suspend the hearing for a year under the conditions which he 
agreed to are met.  The biggest one is that he gets to be called back to 
the US on demand and he has to remain in touch with the court.

At the end of the year, the case will be dropped or if he fails to comply, 
his admissions will be used to convict him.  NO CHARGES ARE DROPPED.

I'd love to be wrong.  But people who have charges DROPPED are not subject 
to a court order.
