People v. AL
Our Client was charged with 3 separate cases: A Felony Residential Burglary, An Attempt Felony Residential Burglary and a Felony Possession of a Controlled Substance. He was facing up to 15 years in prison if he was convicted. It was alleged that our Client broke into someone's house and stole a digital camera, laptop, iphone, wallet, credit cards and a bookbag. While inside the house, he was confronted by the owner and chased away. Our Client was also caught on camera in another instance attempting to break into another person's house. After unsuccessfully trying to break into the house, he committed multiple acts of vandalism and destruction of the Victim's property. He was picked out in a line-up for that incident. Finally, our Client was also stopped police after they were alerted that he was trying to pick-pocket some people. When they searched him, they found 22 bags of narcotics. Although the case went beyond the Preliminary Hearing Stages we were able to convince the Judge to go along with TASC probation for our Client over the Prosecution's strenuous objection. TASC probation is a special kind of probation that includes drug treatment. If our Client successfully completes the probation, he is eligible to have his convictions vacated and avoid having these felonies remain on his permanent record.

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.
