Criminal Defense Case Results in Montgomery, TX

Charge

Felony Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Montgomery County, 359th DC

Allegations

Probation sought to revoke our client's deferred adjudication, alleging missed check-ins, gaps in calling the testing line, and a single drug test reported positive for codeine. We secured a bond and compiled records showing the client was current on payments and otherwise compliant. We documented the work schedule that explained the call-in issues and pressed probation on the reliability and context of the lone positive. With that record in hand, the court continued the case on deferred probation with added monitoring instead of adjudicating guilt.

Charge

DWI with Child Passenger

Location

Montgomery County, 9th Judicial District Court

Allegations

Stopped near home after an officer claimed swerving and a wide turn, the client had young children in the vehicle. They declined breath testing, a warrant was obtained, and a blood sample was drawn later at a hospital. We secured dash and body camera footage, scrutinized the field sobriety instructions, and audited the blood draw paperwork for legal and scientific issues. Alongside, we compiled mitigation with treatment and meeting records. Leveraging those points, we negotiated a probationary resolution that kept the client out of jail.

Charge

Felony Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Montgomery County, 359th DC

Allegations

The client faced a felony motion to revoke probation after failing to report and falling behind on several conditions. We obtained the supervision file, clarified what was actually outstanding, and challenged inflated allegations. We then assembled mitigation showing steady progress in school, negative drug screens, strong character letters, and no new offenses. After persistent negotiations across multiple settings, the state relented. The allegation was reduced and the court credited time already served, allowing the client to be released immediately.

Charge

Felony Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Montgomery County, 359th DC

Allegations

The client was on felony deferred probation when a motion to revoke was filed after they stopped reporting for an extended period, leaving a warrant and a steep bond. We dug into the supervision history, gathered mitigation showing sobriety and stability, and assembled character letters and school records. We engaged probation staff and new prosecutors, pressing for a nonprison resolution. After multiple rounds of negotiation, the State agreed to a reduced disposition. The client received credit for time served and was released.

Charge

Possession of THC (State Jail Felony)

Location

Montgomery County, 9th DC

Allegations

After a roadside encounter, officers said they found a small cartridge believed to contain THC concentrate under one gram and filed a state jail felony possession charge. We moved quickly to obtain discovery and scrutinized how the item was seized, whether any consent or probable cause justified the search, and how it was handled afterward. We demanded certified lab testing and full chain of custody documentation to prove substance and weight. We set suppression issues for hearing and made clear we were ready to litigate. The prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Possession of THC (State Jail Felony)

Location

Montgomery County, 221st DC

Allegations

Officers said the client was speeding, immediately detained them, and searched the car without consent. A tiny container of THC wax was seized, but no admissions were taken and the dash video showed no radar or lidar, only pacing. We obtained the footage and reports, challenged the stop and the timing of the lights versus jurisdiction, and highlighted chain of custody and the lack of lab testing for the trace residue. With a suppression motion ready and the state facing proof problems, the prosecution dismissed the felony possession case.

Charge

Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon

Location

Montgomery County, CCL4

Allegations

The client was pulled over for alleged extreme speeding. Officers removed the driver, handcuffed them, and placed them in a patrol car, then searched the vehicle without asking for consent, locating a handgun in a backpack on the back seat. We secured the dash and body camera footage, which showed no consent to search, minimal questioning before detention, and jurisdictional problems with the stop itself. We built a suppression strategy around those defects and pressed the prosecution. Facing those issues, the state dismissed the unlawful carrying case.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Montgomery County, CCL4

Allegations

Police contacted the client at home after a 911 tip, with no traffic stop or firsthand view of driving. Field tests were done in a parking area, a portable breath test read high, no blood was drawn, and contact came well after the drive. We attacked the lack of any eyewitness behind the wheel, the delay before contact, and whether the breath request was truly voluntary, and demanded calibration records. We also set the license hearing to question the officer. Faced with these issues, the state dropped the .15 enhancement, reduced the charge, and the client resolved it for time served without probation.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, CCL5

Allegations

After a single vehicle crash, the client was arrested for DWI following field tests and a refusal of breath testing. Officers obtained a blood warrant, but the first draw at the jail failed and a second was taken hours later at a hospital. The on scene body camera was missing, and the report conflicted with what was said about the client’s performance on the tests. We challenged the reliability and timing of the blood evidence and highlighted gaps in the state’s proof. Facing those problems, the prosecution agreed to reduce the charge and accept a time served sentence.

Charge

DWI - Third Offense

Location

Montgomery County, 435th DC

Allegations

After a rear-end collision, the client was arrested for a third DWI. They admitted to drinking a few beers and performed roadside sobriety tests, then were taken to a hospital due to airbag deployment. No blood was drawn and no station breath test was administered. We secured discovery, scrutinized the roadside testing in light of the crash, and challenged how prior cases were being used for enhancement. Leveraging those issues, we negotiated straight probation and kept the client out of prison.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Montgomery County, CCL5

Allegations

Police were called after a resident reported an ATV near a retention area late at night. The client was stuck in mud when officers arrived, and after contact he declined field sobriety tests. He was transported and a blood sample was taken under a warrant. We gathered the bodycam, reports, and warrant materials, and highlighted that this was an off‑road ATV situation with no crash or injuries. After sustained negotiations with the prosecutor, we secured straight probation, keeping the client out of jail.

Charge

Criminal Trespass (Misdemeanor)

Location

Montgomery County, CCL5

Allegations

Police were called after a resident reported someone on an ATV in an open tract near a neighborhood. Our client had become stuck in a muddy drainage area and, when told to leave, tried but could not get the ATV out. He was detained and cited for criminal trespass along with another charge. We obtained the bodycam and 911 audio, surveyed the location, and reviewed property and plat records. With no clear fencing or signage, and video showing his attempts to depart, we challenged the elements. The prosecutor dismissed the trespass.
