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. 10285)

FELONY AGGRAVATED DUI (.095 BAC) REDUCED to a misdemeanor DUI with 10 days in jail – State v. Mr. S. (DMC No. 10285) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2011-108805): Mr. S. was driving in an unfamiliar roadway in Gilbert where two lanes merged into one.  When he realized he that was running out of roadway, he slowed to approximately 2 MPH in a 45 MPH zone.  An officer pulled him over and subsequently arrested him for DUI.  He provided a .095 blood test.  We were able to prove to the prosecutor that Mr. S. did not know his license was suspended from a previous DUI, and therefore they lacked a necessary element of AGGRAVATED DUI.  We secured an offer to a misdemeanor DUI with 10 days of jail.  Originally, Mr. S. was facing 4 months minimum in prison, up to 3.75 years maximum.

State v. Mr. M (DMC No. 4701)

REDUCED | AGGRAVATED DUI (.093 BAC) REDUCED to a misdemeanor DUI with 1 day in jail – State v. Mr. M. (DMC No. 4701) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2004-038051): Mr. M. was involved in a single-car accident at the US-60 north bound ramp to the 101 freeway.  When the officer arrived, there were two people standing outside the vehicle attempting to fix it. He was eventually arrested and provided a breath test which revealed a .093 BAC.  Due to the fact that he had a prior DUI and his license was suspended, he was charged with felony AGGRAVATED DUI and was facing 4 months minimum, up to 3.75 years in prison.  We were able to convince the prosecutor that they could not prove who the driver was under “Corpus Delicti”, and they agreed to offer a 1st offense misdemeanor DUI with 1 day in jail.

State v. Ms. R (DMC No. 9095)

DISMISSED – Probation Violation, State v. Ms. R. (DMC No. 9095) (Maricopa County Superior Court No. 2006-109586): Ms. R was on probation for Burglary (a Class 3 Felony), when her Probation Officer filed a Petition to Revoke her Probation due to various violations. We were able to show that Ms. R was on Standard Probation and not Intensive Probation, so a violation of Term 17 (Consumption of Alcohol) would not result in an Automatic Revocation. In addition, there was only an admission of alcohol consumption, and not any hard evidence. The State then moved to Dismiss the Petition to Revoke, even though Ms. R was facing a potential of years in prison.

State v. Ms. L. (DMC No. 11667)

Not Guilty / Complete Acquittal / Felony Aggravated Assault (2 Counts) – State v. Ms. L. (DMC No. 11667) (Maricopa County Superior Court No. CR2013-102278-001):

Ms. L. had called 911 due to a domestic violence dispute in her home in Mesa, Arizona where her roommate had assaulted her.  Two Mesa Police Officers arrived and eventually claimed that Ms. L. assaulted them.  One officer claimed that Ms. L. pushed him, and the other claimed that Ms. L. spit on him.  Knowingly touching a police officer with the intent to insult, injure, or provoke him/her is a Felony Aggravated Assault.  The entire incident was captured on video from a mounted camera on one of the officer’s shoulders.  After jury trial in which the attorney from our firm showed through testimony of various witnesses that the police officers lied both in their police reports and on the witness stand Ms. L. was found not guilty on both charges by the jury of her peers.

(DMC No. 5888) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2003-027468): Mr. H. was convicted for disorderly conduct and was placed on probation.  The probation office alleged that he violated his probation by contacting his wife.  We were able to show the court that Mr. H. had contacted his wife to tell her that he was going into surgery.  She wanted to be there for him, and she informed the P.O. that she would be attending the surgery.  The P.O. then filed the Petition to Revoke.  We showed the Judge that they had been married for 25 years, and that the Petition should be dismissed.
