Motion to Adjudicate - Dallas County
Jan 04, 2013OUTCOME: Continued on Deferred
Dallas County – Client, a high school senior, faced 10 years in prison on a Motion to Adjudicate for Felony Heroin Possession charge in Dallas County. The client had violated nearly 20 of his probation ... conditions, and even had a pending Burglary of a Vehicle charge. A previously appointed attorney set the case for an open plea before the Judge just a week prior to Johnny Lanzillo being hired, and the Judge denied a continuance. Attorney Johnny Lanzillo IV met with the client in jail on short notice and prepared for the open plea. After the hearing, client was placed into a rehab program, avoided prison time, and got back time credited for the Burglary charge. Instead of prison time, Client will receive treatment for his addiction and then will continue on his deferred probation.
