Rosario Dawson is now clear of court charges. Charges of disorderly conduct against actress during last year's Republican National Convention were dropped because she was filming a movie.

Dawson, 25, was arrested at Eighth Avenue protest in New York City last summer while working on a shoot for the upcoming film "This Revolution" and charged with disorderly conduct and obstruction.

When Rosario was shooting a movie, she was wearing two handkerchiefs on her face with only her eyes showing and refused to move when police told them to. The whole crew was arrested after Marshall, director of the movie, tried to show police their city film permit.

Prosecutors told a judge Tuesday the actress was not directly involved in the protest, as they were using the protests as a backdrop for the movie.

Dawson said as she left court, “I’m happy how this all went down.”

Charges against nearly 1,500 people who were swept up in mass arrests during last year's Republican National Convention have been or are expected to be dismissed.

Rosario Dawson debuted in controversial movie “Kids” directed by Gus Van Sant. She has also appeared in “Sidewalks of New York”, “Shattered Glass”, “Men in Black 2” and “Alexander”.
