Client was charged with 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(1), which is a felon in possession of a firearm.

The firearm was located during the course of a traffic stop. After much discovery and requesting the name of the informant as it related to the client’s defense, the government was unable to provide the name of the informant. Therefore, the case was dismissed. My client was facing a potential federal sentence of (10) years in federal prison.
OUTCOME: Trial Verdict for Scroggins. Case won and affirmed on appeal.
Ms. Scroggins, my client, filed a Petition for her mother’s Will to be probated in Jefferson County. Barron, the grandson, filed a cross-petition to probate the Will in another county and to serve as e ... xecutor of the estate. A trial was conducted in Jefferson County Probate Court. The trial court concluded that the Will should be probated in Jefferson County, and that Barron had been self-dealing money from his grandmother’s estate. Additionally, Barron had to repay approximately $54,000 to the Estate of Marian E. Hawkins. The case was appealed and the Court of Civil Appeals affirmed the trial court’s decision.
