State v. Mr. V. (DMC No. 10271)

DISORDERLY CONDUCT with GUN (dangerous)/RESISTING ARREST REDUCED to PROBATION with 1 YEAR in JAIL – State v. Mr. V. (DMC No. 10271) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2011-119677): Mr. V. was depressed and suicidal, and had taken several anti-depressants.  He called 911 and informed them he had a shotgun and was going to kill himself.  When police arrived, he discharged the shotgun up in the air and just passed his own head towards the back.  He was tasered and shot with rubber bullets before being taken into custody.  Originally he was facing a minimum of 2.25 years in prison because of police being listed as victims.  We were able to reduce his case to probation, and jail with work release, which enabled Mr. V. to go to work and keep paying his mortgage for his family.

State v. Mr. P (DMC No. 4845)

REDUCED | FELONY DISORDERLY CONDUCT with a GUN (Dangerous) REDUCED to CLASS 6 OPEN/MISDEMEANOR DISORDERLY CONDUCT with 60 DAYS JAIL DEFERRED– State v. Mr. P. (DMC No. 4845) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2004-124472): Mr. P. and his wife had been in a bar, when he was dropped off at home while she went to run an errand with her 5 year old.  When she got back, 6 shots had been fired from a gun inside the house, and Mr. P. was passed out.  The police arrived and charged Mr. P. with felony disorderly conduct dangerous, which carries a prison range of 1 ½ to 3 years in prison.  We were able to argue that nobody else’s peace was disturbed and the police were only called after the fact. We were able to have the case reduced to a class 6 open disorderly conduct with 60 days of deferred jail.  Upon successful completion of probation, Mr. P. did not have to do any jail and his conviction became a mere misdemeanor.  He has no felony on his record.

State v. Mr. R (Case No. CR2006-174334-001)(DMC No.)

State v. Mr. R. (CR2006-174334-001): Mr. R. was in a dispute with his neighbor who was harassing his live-in girlfriend. The girlfriend was subsequently grabbed by the neighbor, and several days later Mr. R. went over to discuss this issue with the neighbor. At that time, Mr. R. had a gun which he had pulled out of his holster and displayed. He originally was facing 1 ½ to 3 years in prison. After thoroughly investigating the case and raising doubt as to the alleged victim’s credibility (specifically through emails we had discovered), we were able to get the case reduced to probation with no jail.

State v. Ms. A (DMC No.)

State v. Ms. A. (Maricopa County Superior Court No. A839517CR): Mr. A. was at a house party on the reservation when police arrived. They entered and arrested her brother’s friend, when she intervened and began asking numerous questions of the police. The officers became frustrated and arrested her, claiming she was obstructing a criminal investigation, committing Disorderly Conducting, Resisting Arrest, and Providing False Information. We were able to talk to the assigned prosecutor on the case, and he “furthered” the case back to police for more information. Ultimately, the prosecutor made the decision to dismiss all charges.

State v. Mr. D (DMC No. 3947)

DISMISSED | AGGRAVATED ASSAULT/DISORDERLY CONDUCT/RESISTING ARREST State v. Mr. D. (Maricopa County Superior Court No. 2002-094134CR): Ms. D. was having a party in his back yard with numerous people and had been drinking when he was confronted by a young lady who spit in his face. He pushed her away, and the police were called. Because she was 15 years of age, he was charged with Aggravated Assault. When the police grabbed him to arrest him, he did not realize they were officers (as he was grabbed from behind). He was then charged with Resisting Arrest and Aggravated Assault on Police Officers. We immediately set the case to trial and began describing the facts to the prosecutor involved in the case. Eventually the prosecutor moved to dismiss all charges against Mr. D.

Disorderly Conduct with a Gun, State v. Ms. S. (Maricopa County Superior Court No. 2003-020930CR): Police were called when a neighbor complained that Ms. S. had fired a gun at the neighbor’s dog. An independent witness indicated he saw the dog approach Ms. S. and was barking at her when she fired the gun. Because Ms. S. and the neighbor were having disputes over a common wall (which had not been built), the police felt she was attempting to threaten the neighbor. Mr. S. was arrested and charged with Disorderly Conduct with a Gun, and was facing 1.5 to 3 years in prison. We were able to get the charge reduced to a class 6 undesignated offense which included probation and 3 months in jail. Ms. S. successfully completed probation and her conviction was then reduced to a misdemeanor.
