Normally, we only post results once a case is completed. However, we had some results in cases this week that we feel compelled to share. While some of the cases are not concluded, we will make sure to let you know how they turn out.
Tuesday - We had a hearing waiting for a decision from the judge to determine whether or not to grant the client's motion for a collateral attack on one of her prior convictions. It was an extremely important motion as the client was charged with an OWI 4th offense. If successful, the charge would not only be amended from a felony to a misdemeanor, it will also change the client's legal alcohol concentration from .02 to .08. That mattered in this case, as the client had a blood alcohol level of .07, which would have put her under the legal limit. The morning of the judge's decision the prosecutor called and admitted that they could not defend the collateral attack and amended the charge to a 3rd offense. Client is now not going to be a felon and goes into the trial, under the legal limit. Good day.
