OUTCOME: Dismissed prior to trial date
Client, a janitor in the medical center at the time of the incident, was charged with theft. She had found an iPhone on the floor during her night shift and picked it up and took it home with the inte ... ntion to later turn it in to lost and found. However, she kept forgetting to take the phone with her to work. 6 days later, the police were able to track the phone to her apartment using the find iPhone app, where they interviewed her on video after giving her Miranda warnings. I argued to prosecutors that she may have been negligent, even reckless, in how she handled the situation, but not with the intent required to make her actions criminal under the theft statute. Eventually, the DAs agreed, dismissing it off docket prior to the scheduled trial date. Client is undocumented and was facing deportation if convicted and jailed.

OUTCOME: Dismissed on morning of trial
Client was charged with failure to stop and give information after allegedly crashing into a motorist and then crashing into her again to flee the scene. We were able to navigate some difficult eviden ... tiary issues and ultimately get a dismissal just as the jury panel was about to walk in to start the trial. The state's initial offer on this case was the max (180 days in jail) because client is a convicted felon and the DAs didn't like the facts of this case. Client's perseverance paid off after almost a year of fighting.
