DISMISSED – Assault/Disorderly Conduct, State v. Mr. H. (DMC No.7286) (Scottsdale Municipal Court No. CR-2006030863): Mr. H. lived in a house with several college roommates. He had been out drinking with his roommates when they arrived back at their house and encountered another roommate who had been drinking. Mr. H. began wrestling and fighting with that roommate, and police were called. Because Mr. H. was roommates with the gentleman he fought with, he was charged with a Domestic Violence Assault. We were able to show that this simply an argument between roommates, and the alleged victim no longer sought to proceed with charges. The case was then dismissed on the day of trial.
