ASSAULT REDUCED to DISORDERLY CONDUCT with ZERO DAYS JAIL – State v. Mr. N. (DMC No. 10141) (Scottsdale City Court CR2011-018300): Mr. N. was having a heated argument with his wife in a parking lot, when somebody walked up and punched him.  Mr. N. was knocked out and the police were called.  Because witnesses had said that Mr. N. had grabbed his wife, he was charged with assault.  We were able to show that he was actually the victim of somebody else’s assault, and all he was doing was engaged in a loud argument.  The State agreed to reduce the assault charge down to a mere “disorderly conduct” with zero day’s jail.
