The independent MLA and his two other aides were cleared of charges in the first case on June 22.
NIA Special Judge Pranjal Das did not frame charges against Gogoi and his three aides Dheeraj Konwar, Manas Konwar and Bitu Sonowal in connection with the Chandmari case in which they were accused of having Maoist links.
