Charge

Misdemeanor Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Dallas County, 363rd Judicial District Court

Allegations

Our client was on probation supervised out of state. After repeated officer changes and poor communication, the client was mistakenly labeled as having absconded and a no-bond warrant issued. We compiled text messages with probation, employment records, and a series of clean drug tests to prove ongoing compliance and rehabilitation. We engaged the prosecutor and probation, arranged a voluntary appearance, and laid out a detailed timeline of the client’s efforts. The state dismissed the motion to revoke and the case was dismissed.

Charge

Failure to Register as a Sex Offender

Location

Dallas County, 203rd Judicial District Court

Allegations

The client was arrested out of state on a fugitive warrant for an alleged failure to register tied to a brief residence many years earlier. We obtained records from multiple jurisdictions, verified the client notified authorities when relocating, and documented subsequent registrations elsewhere. We pressed the investigator and prosecutor on the legal basis and filed in district court to force disclosure and review of the stale warrant. The record showed a clerical mismatch and a misreading of the statute. The prosecutor rejected the case and the warrant was withdrawn, resulting in a dismissal.

Charge

Promotion of Prostitution

Location

Tarrant County, D485

Allegations

During a prior visit, our client became the target of an undercover operation focused on prostitution activity. Weeks later, they were detained out of state on a warrant tied to that investigation. We moved fast, coordinated with the court, obtained discovery, and dissected the sting evidence and the elements the state would have to prove. We emphasized gaps in attribution and intent and made clear we were ready to litigate. Confronted with those weaknesses, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Misdemeanor Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Dallas County, County Criminal Court No. 6

Allegations

The client was on deferred probation for a first DWI when a motion to revoke was filed after positive tests for THC and alcohol markers, missed check-ins, and paperwork lapses. We compiled proof of recent clean tests, illness, transportation problems, and financial constraints to explain the compliance gaps. We also obtained bond reinstatement and engaged with probation and the prosecutor to narrow the violations. The state agreed to reduce the allegations, and the court credited time already served. The client avoided further jail and closed the case.

Charge

Resisting Arrest (Class A)

Location

Tarrant County, CCC4

Allegations

The individual arrived at a treatment facility seeking help but chose to leave shortly after. Staff called police, and responding officers confronted the person outside and tried to detain without articulating a separate offense. A brief struggle occurred when an injured arm was twisted, and force was used including a Taser. We obtained bodycam and facility records, highlighted the voluntary nature of the visit and lack of danger to others, and documented immediate entry into rehab with ongoing meetings. We challenged the legality of the detention, and the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Criminal Trespass (Misdemeanor)

Location

Tarrant County, None

Allegations

While searching for a missing relative, our client went to a residence after the occupant shared the address and agreed to speak. The occupant opened the door and a conversation took place outside, and witnesses consistently said the client never went inside. Later, a criminal trespass charge was filed. We gathered statements from everyone present and preserved messages showing the visit was prompted by the occupant's invitation. We emphasized the prior consent and the absence of any entry. The prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Misdemeanor Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Ellis County, COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO 2

Allegations

The client was on misdemeanor probation when the state filed a motion to revoke based on a new arrest. We reviewed the underlying allegations, which were still under investigation, and documented that the complaining witness did not wish to pursue charges. We compiled proof of ongoing compliance and questioned whether the state could show a willful breach. After sustained pressure in negotiations, the state dismissed the motion and the case was closed.

Charge

Stalking (Felony)

Location

Ellis County, None

Allegations

The client was arrested after a dating partner reported stalking. We got involved early, opened communication with the prosecutor, and focused on the actual context of the relationship. The complaining witness later signed an affidavit of non-prosecution, which we documented and delivered to the state. With the complainant unwilling to proceed, we pressed for a negotiated resolution. The case was resolved with deferred probation, avoiding the risks of trial while the client complies with court terms.

Charge

Felony Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Collin County, 416th District Court

Allegations

While on felony probation, the client faced a revocation motion alleging new arrests in another jurisdiction, failure to complete required classes, missed or failed drug tests, and not reporting the arrests. We dug into the violation timeline, addressed each allegation with context, and coordinated with probation and the prosecutor on a path forward focused on compliance. Instead of proceeding to revocation, the state agreed to a negotiated resolution, and the court kept the client on probation with modified terms.

Charge

Misdemeanor Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Ellis County, COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO 2

Allegations

A motion to revoke our client's misdemeanor probation was filed after authorities alleged a violation tied to new, unadjudicated accusations. We obtained the revocation packet and reviewed the supervision file and supporting documents in detail. Our team disputed the factual basis for any violation and emphasized the absence of reliable proof. We prepared to contest the motion and set out our position clearly. The prosecution dismissed the revocation, and the case was closed.
