Criminal Defense Case Results in Bexar, TX

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC 2

Allegations

After a minor collision with a parked, unoccupied car, officers initiated a DWI investigation. The client admitted to drinking, completed field sobriety tests, and recalled stumbling, which we argued was consistent with post-crash stress and an airbag deployment. They refused a roadside breath test, and a blood sample was later taken at the jail. We reviewed the police and crash reports, emphasized the absence of injuries, and challenged the weight of the roadside exercises. The case resolved with deferred probation.

Charge

Felony Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Bexar County, 187TH District Court

Allegations

The client had been on long-term felony probation when supervision filed to revoke after a meeting where a pipe was seen and over issues paying for an ankle monitor. We gathered the supervision file, UA results showing clean tests, and communications with the new officer to document the client's overall compliance and the financial hardship. We engaged the prosecutor and argued the violations were nonviolent and addressable. After negotiations and a proposed compliance plan, the state backed off revocation. The client remained on probation.

Charge

Racing on a Highway

Location

Bexar County, CC6

Allegations

Stopped by police and accused of racing after briefly accelerating on a highway, our client explained they sped up to get away from an aggressive driver who was weaving and revving beside them. We secured statements from a passenger and a second driver who confirmed the attempt to disengage. We presented these facts and pressed the lack of intent to race. The prosecution offered a pretrial diversion with limited conditions, and after completion, the case was dismissed.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC4

Allegations

Officers responded to a single-vehicle crash into a barrier and conducted field sobriety tests before making an arrest. The client admitted to drinking and later provided a breath sample around 0.15. We dug into the police reports and testing records, evaluating how the post-crash conditions and airbag deployment could have affected the observations and the tests. We paired those concerns with mitigation from a clean history in negotiations. The prosecution agreed to reduce the charge.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Bexar County, CCL8

Allegations

After dozing off at the wheel, the client struck a barrier and officers conducted roadside sobriety tests at the crash scene. There were no open containers and the client made no admissions, but a later breath sample registered over 0.15. We emphasized how fatigue and the disorientation of a collision can compromise the reliability of field testing, and pointed out other gaps in the report. With no prior record, we pressed these issues in negotiations. The state reduced the charge, and we obtained deferred terms to keep a conviction off the record.

Charge

Sexual Assault

Location

Bexar County, D437

Allegations

Following a report made during a heated family dispute, the client was arrested and consistently maintained the allegation was fabricated. Our team moved quickly to obtain the case file and scrutinize the complainant's statements against the rest of the evidence. The narrative shifted in key ways, and the complainant later signaled they did not wish to cooperate. We organized those credibility issues into a clear presentation and pressed the prosecution on proof problems. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence by Strangulation

Location

Bexar County, D437

Allegations

Police arrested our client after a domestic argument escalated and a report alleged strangulation. We moved quickly, reviewed the police report and bond conditions, and gathered context about the relationship. The allegations were firmly disputed, and we identified a recent conflict that raised serious questions about motive. We pressed the DA on proof issues with the strangulation element and made clear we were ready to litigate. Confronted with those problems, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Evading Arrest or Detention (On Foot)

Location

Bexar County, CC1

Allegations

During a police encounter, the client allegedly ran from officers and was arrested for evading arrest or detention on foot. The case was filed in a misdemeanor court. We opened discussions with the prosecutor, focused on the circumstances of the attempted detention, and pushed for a non jail outcome. After negotiations, the state agreed to straight probation rather than seeking jail time. The client entered the plea in court and began a one year term of probation.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 6

Allegations

Stopped for a turn signal violation, the client was investigated for DWI after a drive-thru employee reported possible intoxication. Officers performed eye and one-leg balance tests and skipped the walk-and-turn when the client reported dizziness. A breath test was administered later by another unit. We secured the videos and reports, highlighting issues with how the tests were conducted, the delay before testing, and questions about device operation. We also submitted proof of ongoing treatment, character letters, and relevant medical documentation. The case resolved with deferred probation.

Charge

Attempt to Take an Officer's Weapon

Location

Bexar County, DC437

Allegations

The client was arrested after a tense encounter with police and accused of trying to take an officer's weapon. We secured the reports and video, then zeroed in on the legality of the initial detention and the escalation that followed. Our team filed a motion to suppress and challenged whether the evidence met the elements of the offense, including intent and any actual control over the firearm. After presenting these issues and signaling readiness for a hearing, the prosecution dismissed the case before trial.

Charge

Possession of a Controlled Substance (Felony)

Location

Bexar County, None

Allegations

Police reported finding suspected narcotics following a detention that escalated into a search. We dug into the police reports and case evidence, reconstructed the timeline, and flagged weaknesses in the stated basis for the search and in how the substance was handled. We prepared a motion to suppress and set it for a hearing. After we laid out these problems and signaled we were ready to litigate, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Manufacture or Delivery of a Controlled Substance

Location

Bexar County, None

Allegations

Police reported finding narcotics and alleged our client intended to deliver. We obtained reports, video, and lab documents and focused on how the substances were discovered. The search sprang from a tenuous basis, and key steps in establishing probable cause and tying the items to our client did not hold up. We pressed the prosecutor with these evidentiary problems and signaled we were ready to litigate a suppression issue. After reviewing our challenges, the state dismissed the case.
