motion to end pursuit


Explanation:
Hello,

It means that that the prosecutor has filed a motion to no longer pursue the defendant on this account. So, on this one aspect, the defendant will no longer be pursued.

requête = motion
de classement = to end pursuit (classer = to call it quits/file it away/end

I hope this helps.
