They would have to say they were mistaken (such as they realize it wasn't Mixon) to get the charges dropped or that they lied to get the charges dropped. But a settlement implies they weren't mistaken. And lying to get a warrant would be a serious offense. 

Getting it dropped without a settlement would seem to be what Mixon's agent is implying. That the court drops the issue because the police/court did not do due diligence and other facts go against what was alleged.

Not necessarily.  Again, there could have been no witnesses and Mixon paid her to not push it.  She cannot drop the charges, the state made those, but she can say that she doesn't want to testify and if the only evidence is her word the case would be unprosectuable. It would be very difficult even if she did testify. Now add the fact that it is high profile and Mixon would have great lawyers.  This would only be a headache for the state.
