The Police Officers alleged that our Client engaged in a hand to hand transaction with another person. Our Client allegedly gave this other person a plastic baggie and then drove off. Allegedly, our Client refused to stop when police tried to pull him over and the Arresting Officers were eventually able to detain our Client several blocks later.

After running our Client's name, the police learned that our Client's driving privileges were revoked for a prior DUI. All charges were dismissed at the Preliminary Hearing.
People v. DG
Our Client was charged with DUI. Police claim that they responded to a call of a person asleep at the wheel, facing the wrong way, in oncoming traffic. When they arrived at the scene, Officers claim that our Client was unable to say away, smelled strongly of alcohol and had open alcohol inside his vehicle. At the police station our Client allegedly failed the standardized field sobriety tests which were administered, and he refused to submit to a breathalyzer test. By refusing to submit to the breathalyzer test, our Client's license was automatically, summarily suspended by the Secretary of State. We filed a Petition to Rescind the Statutory Summary Suspension. On the hearing date, the prosecution agreed to rescind the suspension and offer our Client supervision. Not only was our Client able to avoid a conviction on his record, he was able to begin driving immediately after court!

People v. WM
Client was charged with a Class 1 - Manufacturing and Delivery of a Controlled Substance. He was looking at up to 15 years in prison if convicted. We filed a Motion to Quash Arrest and Suppress Evidence and beat his case. The Judge ruled that when the police used their vehicle to block in our Client's vehicle at the gas station, our Client was not free to go. Because they did this without witnessing any illegal activity, any search of our Client and his vehicle were in violation of his Constitutional rights, and the large amount of drugs that were found must be suppressed.

It was alleged that our Client, along with several other people, stopped and chased 2 people who were on their way home from the grocery store with their kids. Our Client's group allegedly yelled racial slurs while chasing the victims. We set our Client's case for Trial. When the prosecution realized that they would not be able to win, they were forced to dismiss all the charges.
People v. DH
Client was charged with Felony Armed Habitual Criminal and Unlawful Use of a Weapon - Convicted Felon. The Police got a search warrant for our Client's residence. However, the search warrant said our Client lived in a single family home, and this wasn't true. The home was broken up into separate apartments with separate doorways, separate utilities and even separate gates locking the entry ways. The police did not find any guns or ammo in our Client's apartment. However, they did find what they claimed to be a gun in the attic of the building. The Police also claimed to have found a set of pistol grips that matched the gun from the attic on our Client's bed. As unbelievable as all that sounds, the prosecution insisted on prosecuting the case all the way. We set the case for trial and produced a firearms test for the prosecution which showed that the gun the police allegedly found wasn't a gun at all but a TOY. They had no choice but to dismiss all the charges.
People v. IT - Violation of Probation
Our Client was charged with a Violation of Probation. Our Client picked up several traffic cases and a new felony arrest while on probation for a Felony DUI that was reduced to a misdemeanor.
