Case Number: 2022-CF-001008-A-O, County: Orange, Charges: Battery on LEO & Resisting With Violence, Date resolved: January 2023, Outcomes: Client was arrested for a DUI, felony Battery on a Law Enforcement Officer, and Resisting Officer With Violence. Rather than consolidate the charges, we filed a motion to suppress the DUI case and convinced the State this was an illegal arrest. The day before the hearing, the State dropped the DUI charge and then we used that information to convince the felony prosecutor to drop the felony charges as well. We never had to risk a judge ruling against us on the legal issue because we instead made the two prosecutors believe we had a winning argument either way.
