What would likely happen to the Eric Adams case if both prosecution and defense agree not to pursue it?

In the case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams, if both prosecution and defense agree not to pursue the case, the judge would likely dismiss it. While the judge technically has options - including asking questions, putting up a fight, or writing something in response - David Spunt explains that ultimately, the judge would probably go forward with dropping the case when both sides are in agreement. This situation has become relevant following Acting U.S. Attorney Danielle Sassoon's resignation amid the Justice Department's directive to drop the case against Adams, which she refused to comply with. The legal mechanism would require the judge to formally dismiss the case, but with consensus from both parties, dismissal becomes the most probable outcome.
