Case Details
Client was charged with double felonies regarding a domestic violence incident. PC 273.5 is corporal injury to a spouse and 245 an assault likely to cause great bodily harm. Client was facing up to 5 years on each count. I ordered medical reports, body-worn camera footage of arrest and scene, and reviewed all police reports with witness statements. The devil is always in the details. I was able to find the inconsistencies which weakened the allegations. Results: I was able to get both felonies dismissed. Client pled to only a P.C. 242 which is a misdemeanor simple battery and permission to withdraw plea for a complete dismissal after completion of probation. No jail or prison time. No domestic violence batterer’s classes. Case is now completely dismissed.
Additional Notes
Double felonies (PC 273.5 and PC 245) dismissed. Client pled to misdemeanor PC 242 with eventual dismissal after probation. No jail, prison, or batterer's classes.
