Trespass Into a Conveyance
Client B.L–Client originally charged with Grand theft Auto 3rd degree felony. Client pled to an amended charge of trespass into a conveyance, a misdemeanor. He was sentenced to time served and was able to close his case that had been pending for 13 years.
Client F.A–Pled trespass in structure (m1) and criminal mischief (m2 ag + cts)
ag + 347 days probation + 17 days cts + behavioral modification class (1 day) + no contact with victim except for child visitation arrangements and communication with 6 year old child. Restitution ordered, reserve jurisdiction 90 days to set amount
Good result in light of risk of burglary of a dwelling charge.
VOP: VOP dismissed. Victim did a declination on the new law charge, so State ultimately couldn’t go forward on the VOP and had to dismiss it, as client turned himself in on the warrant and thus the State had no other basis for a violation.
