Prison officer Emma Blake, of Barnsley Street, Wigan, was due to face a trial at Preston Crown Court this week.
It was alleged the blonde 28-year-old worker effectively facilitated a romantic relationship between an inmate and an English teacher.
But on what should have been the first day of her trial, the Crown Prosecution Service told judge Sara Dodd it was not proceeding with the case against Ms Blake.
Her colleague Jennifer Forshaw, 28, who worked as a teacher at HMP Wymott in Leyland, has already pleaded guilty to committing misconduct in a public office by entering into a romantic relationship with an inmate there.
