Jadakiss and three other occupants were charged with criminal possession of a weapon, because of the loaded handgun inside the vehicle.
Jadakiss pleaded not guilty to the charges days after being arrested and his lawyer denied the charges, stating "I have yet to see or hear of any evidence connecting my client to possessing this weapon."
Last week, the Westchester County's district attorney asked a judge to dismiss the charges, after a jury acquitted one of the men in the car when DNA tests failed to link any of the three men to the gun.
