Normally that would mean that the case is still open. It could also be a clerical error meaning that no one put the final resolution into the data bank. It is very important that you get in touch with the clerk's office for the county or town in which these crimes occurred to determine whether or not the case it still open. You want to make sure that there are no warrants outstanding based on your failure to appear in court.
I would contact the courts by phone, or in person, to get the information as soon as possible. Good luck.

It means it is showing as open in the court's computer. Was it your case? Do you remember the result? Was it covered as part of a plea to a diferent case? It's likely not a warrant situation or that would still show. I suggest calling the court clerk where the case was brought.
