Criminal Defense Case Results in Texas

Charge

Resisting or Evading Arrest

Location

Harris County, CC14

Allegations

The case arose after a traffic incident that sent our client to a medical facility, where officers later tried to take him into custody. In the confusion that followed, police reported that he did not immediately comply with commands, leading to a resisting or evading charge. We dug into the incident timeline and arrest paperwork to contextualize his behavior and presented mitigating factors tied to his post-incident condition. After sustained negotiations, the state agreed to a straight probation offer, sparing additional jail time.

Charge

Engaging in Organized Criminal Activity

Location

Travis County, 450th District Court

Allegations

The client brought a motorcycle to a service department and was confronted by employees aligned with a rival group. A larger crowd formed and a brief fight erupted at the entrance, during which others were armed and were disarmed. Police filed an organized criminal activity charge based on group involvement in the altercation. We obtained the business surveillance video and mapped the timeline, showing the client arrived for a legitimate appointment and was targeted first. We challenged any claim of a coordinated plan. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Location

Bexar County, 379th DC

Allegations

The client was charged with misdemeanor family violence assault. We moved quickly to secure discovery, reviewing the police report and any available recordings, and reconstructed the timeline with our client. Our team prepared to challenge the sufficiency of the proof and the reliability of the accusation before a jury. We pressed these evidentiary weaknesses with the assigned prosecutor and made clear we were ready for trial. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Harris County, CC14

Allegations

After a traffic collision, our client was arrested on a second-offense DWI and transported for treatment. Officers secured a warrant, and the blood draw did not occur until several hours after the driving event. We reconstructed the timeline from the state's own paperwork and emphasized how the delay affected the weight of the evidence. With that leverage, we negotiated a resolution focused on supervision and rehabilitation. The case concluded with straight probation.

Charge

Possession of LSD (Less than 20 Abuse Units)

Location

Travis County, 460th District Court

Allegations

During a traffic stop for speeding, officers searched the vehicle and reported finding a small amount of LSD along with marijuana. We focused on how the search began and whether the state could lawfully connect the discovery to the stop. After obtaining the evidence, we scrutinized the reports and challenged the state's probable cause for the search. We made clear we were prepared to pursue a suppression hearing. The prosecution dismissed the possession case.

Charge

Misdemeanor Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Bexar County, 379th DC

Allegations

Probation filed a motion to revoke our client's misdemeanor probation after a new arrest. We moved quickly to obtain the revocation packet and the reports tied to the allegation. Our team dissected the claimed violations and identified evidentiary gaps that would make revocation difficult to prove. We set the matter for a contested setting and pressed the prosecution to meet its burden. Facing those issues, the state dismissed the motion, and the case was dismissed.

Charge

Assault

Location

Hays County, 453rd District Court

Allegations

The client reached out after a dispute with another person turned physical and police opened an assault case. He reported being hit first with a modem, after which both parties fought. Weeks later the complainant changed the story, newly alleging our client used a bottle. We collected text messages and other communications showing their ongoing contact and the shifting narrative, and highlighted evidence of mutual combat and self defense. Faced with those credibility issues, the prosecutor dismissed the case.

Charge

Theft - Class B Misdemeanor

Location

Tarrant County, CCC1

Allegations

The client was detained by store personnel during a self checkout incident and accused of switching barcodes and missing scans, then arrested when officers responded. The client declined to provide a statement. We obtained discovery and broke down the loss prevention reports and receipts, pressing the state on admissible proof of intent and accurate valuation. With the case resting on civilian observations and paperwork, we signaled readiness to litigate. The prosecutor dismissed the charge.

Charge

DWI - Second Offense

Location

Guadalupe County, CC2

Allegations

The client faced a second DWI. We secured the discovery, examined the state's proof item by item, and identified weaknesses in how the case was put together. We organized those issues and presented them to the prosecution, making clear we were ready to challenge them in court. That leverage led to negotiations focused on a lesser allegation. The state ultimately reduced the charge.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Tarrant County, CCC4

Allegations

Following a minor rear end crash, the client was arrested after admitting to having drinks and completing roadside tests. They told officers about a pre existing ankle injury that affected balance, and a blood sample was taken. We secured medical documentation, dissected the officers' reports, and showed how the injury undercut the field sobriety results. Using those weaknesses, along with the client's clean record and the minor nature of the crash, we negotiated a reduction to a lesser charge with deferred probation.

Charge

Resisting or Evading Arrest

Location

Denton County, None

Allegations

Officers responded to a dispute at a residence and questioned our client repeatedly about whether she had been driving. When they moved to detain her, they claimed she pulled away, leading to a resisting or evading arrest charge. We obtained the bodycam footage, dispatch notes, and reports, which showed shifting explanations for the detention and unclear commands during handcuffing. We presented these inconsistencies to the prosecutor. With the key elements in doubt, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Terroristic Threat

Location

Bexar County, Criminal, District Court

Allegations

After a frightening driving incident, the client called the number on a commercial vehicle and left an angry voicemail criticizing the driver. Deputies later reached out about the message and came to the residence to seek a statement, which the client declined. Days after that contact, the client was arrested for felony terroristic threat tied to the voicemail and comments to officers. We obtained the recording, call logs, and reports, and showed the communication arose from a heated complaint, not a credible threat. We pressed the state on the lack of specific, imminent harm and intent. The prosecution dismissed the case.
