State v. Ms. M. (DMC No. 5885)

HIT AND RUN REDUCED to “speeding ticket” – State v. Ms. M. (DMC No. 5885) (Chandler City Court 05-C-2684531): Ms. M. was a juvenile who was driving on a learner’s permit, when a car in front of her stopped abruptly.  She rear-ended the car and both drivers got out and looked at the damage.  They both agreed to pull into a parking lot, and then Ms. M. fled the scene.  We were able to convince the prosecutor that due to Ms. M.’s youth, and the fact that some information may have been exchanged the hit and run should be dismissed in exchange for a speeding ticket.  The prosecutor agreed, and Ms. M. only received a ticket with only a small fine.

State v. Mr. H (DMC No. 9800)

NOT CHARGED | HIT AND RUN – State v. Mr. H. (DMC No. 9800) (Phoenix PD investigated): Mr. H. was at a stop when he began to make a right hand turn.  A pedestrian started to walk in front of the vehicle and slapped the hood of Mr. H.’s car, and began to cuss at him.  Mr. H. drove away, and the pedestrian flagged down an officer claiming hit and run.  Through his license plate number, Mr. H.’s mother was contacted and insurance information was obtained.  We would not allow the Detective to speak to Mr. H., and due to issues with witness availability in regards to a photo lineup, no charges were ever brought.

State v. Mr. V (DMC No. 10167)

NOT CHARGED | HIT AND RUN – State v. Mr. V. (DMC No. 10167) (Phoenix PD investigated): Mr. V. had been driving home at night and had struck a light pole.  Phoenix PD investigated, and we determined that they could not place Mr. V. behind the wheel as a driver without speaking directly to him.  Because we were his attorney’s, we prevented them speaking with him.  Therefore, no charges no could be brought.

State v. Mr. D (DMC No. 10234)

NOT CHARGED | HIT AND RUN – State v. Mr. D. (DMC No. 10234) (Glendale PD investigated): Mr. D. was stopped at a bus stop picking up a male passenger.  When he exited rapidly, he struck another car that was marking a right turn into a parking lot.  A Detective for Glendale PD left a message for Mr. D., and we got involved on his behalf.  Because the Detective could not interview Mr. D., charges could not be wrought for hit and run.  However, insurance information was exchanged which allowed the other driver to get his car fixed.

(DMC No. 10106) (Gilbert City Court 2011-CT0004576): Mr. B. rear-ended another vehicle travelling less than 5 MPH at Val Vista & Elliott Roads in Gilbert.  The officer contacted Mr. B. and suspected marijuana consumption.  He found marijuana in Mr. B.’s vehicle and pictures of marijuana on Mr. B.’s cell phone.  Ultimately, a urine sample was taken which revealed the presence of marijuana metabolites.  Due to various witness issues that arose for the prosecution over the course of the case we were able to secure a complete dismissal from the Prosecutor.

State v. Ms. H. (DMC No. 10406)

REDUCED | FELONY HIT AND RUN – State v. Ms. H. (DMC No. 10406) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2011-126224): Ms. H. had been driving a “Rhino” off-road vehicle when she had hit a bush and flipped.  She injured the passenger who was riding with her, and she was in a daze immediately after the accident.  She ran to her house to call her ex-husband, and when he got there the police had already arrived.  They were originally going to charge her with a DUI, but not could prove whether she had drank after driving or before.  They subsequently charged her with a felony hit and run which we convinced the prosecutor to reduce to an endangerment charge with zero days in jail.  Upon completion of probation the case was designated a misdemeanor.

State v. Mr. S (DMC No. 10842)

NOT CHARGED/REDUCED | FALSE REPORTING/HIT AND RUN and ENDANGERMENT – State v. Mr. S. (DMC No. 10842) (Scottsdale City Court CR2012010042):  Police were dispatched to the location of Terrance & Vista, where they discovered a vehicle that had struck and blown apart a block wall.  They observed debris strewn all over the roadway.  When they contacted Mr. S., he had denied driving and stated that his vehicle was stolen.  Eventually he admitted to driving and he was charged with hit and run and endangerment.  We were able to convince the prosecutor that nobody was endangered (other than Mr. S.), and that the hit and run charge should also be dismissed in exchanged for a reckless driving plea involving no jail time.  We also convinced the prosecutor to not charge Mr. S. for false reporting to a police officer.

State v. Mr. N. (DMC No. 10404)

HIT AND RUN REDUCED to “speeding” ticket at Bench Trial – State v. Mr. N. (DMC No. 10404) (Scottsdale City Court TR-2011015309): Mr. N. was coming up to 70th Street and McDowell Road when he observed a vehicle stopped at a red light backing up rapidly.  He misjudged the distance and struck the car in front of him.  That vehicle then made an illegal u-turn, and Mr. N., believing damage was minimal drove on home.  Upon being contacted by police he initially did not admit to being involved in the accident.  Because the accident was the other drivers fault (in our opinion) the case was set to bench trial.  On the day of bench trial, the State agreed to dismiss the hit and run in exchange for a plea to a simple speeding ticket.
