By the analogy with the following the word "cancellation” is actually appropriate here:

Cancellation of suit – מחיקת התביעה
cancellation of head of indictment - מחיקת סעיף מכתב אישום

also, the dictionary defines מחיקה as:
deletion, suppression, CANCELLATION, write-off

(Prolog’s juridical dictionary)
