“[T]he sanction of dismissal with prejudice should be used only “sparingly,” and ordinarily should follow a forewarning. The forewarning requirement has been applied in cases where the prosecution does not go forward and present its case after it has been denied a continuance. It ensures that the prosecution is able to choose between going to trial and taking the sanction of dismissal with prejudice.”
