RESISTING ARREST REDUCED to MISDEMEANOR with ZERO DAYS JAIL – State v. Mr. M. (DMC No. 5090) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2005-100412): Mr. M. had a large party at his house while his mother was out of town.  Police were called due to the noise complaint.  When they contacted Mr. M. he personally opened the door and admitted that he was 19 and had been drinking. When they told him he was under arrest for the alcohol violation, he attempted to pull away and resist officer’s attempts to arrest him.  He had to be taken to the ground and was charged with felony “resisting arrest”.  We were able to speak to with the Prosecutor, and have the case amended to simple misdemeanor with zero days in jail. He had no felonies on his record.
