People v. MG
Client was charged with Felony DUI and Driving on a Revoked or a Suspended License. Our client has never been issued a license and his driving privileges were revoked/suspended for a prior DUI. The Officer on the case testified that our client was sitting in a parked vehicle with another passenger with the engine running. Both our Client and the passenger were allegedly sleeping in the vehicle. Upon approach, our Client and the Passenger woke up. The Officer noticed a strong odor of alcohol coming from our Client's breath and our Client admitted to drinking the night prior. Even though the Client refused a breathalyzer, the Officer claimed he agreed to participate in and failed Field Sobriety Tests which led the officer to believe he was intoxicated. After cross examination of the officer the Judge found No Probable Cause and the case was dismissed at the Preliminary Hearing Stages.

People v. JR
Our Client was charged with Vehicular Invasion, Robbery, Aggravated Battery and Unlawful Restraint. If convicted, he faced up to 15 years in prison. The Police alleged that our Client took a ride in a taxi. Once he reached his destination, instead of paying, our Client allegedly robbed the taxi driver. The entire incident was recorded on the taxi's internal camera. Through negotiation, we were able to convince the prosecution to offer the minimum of 4 years in prison. We were not able to negotiate probation for our Client because he had a violent background with several prior felony cases including theft, residential burglaries and robberies. However, we were able to have a conference with the Judge ,and were able to convince her to offer our Client Boot Camp. The Boot Camp program is only 120 days and a far better option than 4 years in prison.
