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 The prosecutor rejected the case and the warrant was withdrawn, resulting in a dismissal.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

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

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

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.
