Criminal Defense Case Results in Williamson, TX

Charge

Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #2

Allegations

The client was stopped during a traffic investigation and arrested after officers located a handgun in the vehicle, triggering an unlawful carrying charge. We obtained the police report along with dash and body camera footage and closely examined the basis for the stop, the scope of the search, and how the firearm was discovered. Our review showed the firearm had no magazine present. We presented these problems to the prosecutor and made clear we were ready to litigate. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #3

Allegations

Following a traffic stop initiated after an officer said he was flagged down by a passerby, the client was arrested and a handgun was located in the vehicle's center console. We pulled the dash and body camera footage and the reports, then focused on how the tipster supposedly identified the vehicle and whether that created lawful grounds to detain. We also challenged the scope of the search that led to the firearm. After presenting our suppression arguments and pressing the weaknesses, prosecutors dismissed the case.

Charge

Public Intoxication

Location

Williamson County, Round Rock Municipal Court

Allegations

Officers contacted the client in a retail parking lot and made a public intoxication arrest after noting signs of impairment. We obtained discovery and reviewed the body camera footage to test whether the elements were met and to capture context, including the client’s inability to arrange a ride without a phone. We pushed for a dismissal in exchange for an online class. When the state declined, we negotiated deferred adjudication with a brief compliance term, routine fees, and completion of an alcohol awareness course online. This outcome kept a conviction off the record and required no personal court appearance.

Charge

Collision Involving Serious Bodily Injury

Location

Williamson County, 368th

Allegations

The case stemmed from a roadway collision that injured a scooter rider. Investigators seized the client’s vehicle while they pursued crash data. We pushed for the vehicle’s release, pulled all available videos and bodycam, and analyzed the crash sequence in detail. The evidence showed braking at the moment of contact and that the driver later pulled over to check for damage, undercutting any claim of intentional flight. We presented these issues to the prosecution, the grand jury declined to indict, and the charge was dismissed.

Charge

Misdemeanor Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #2

Allegations

While on misdemeanor probation, the client faced a motion to revoke based on a disputed domestic incident and alleged no-contact concerns. We moved quickly, filed our notice of representation, and demanded discovery and police records. Our team reviewed the protective order terms and collected the client’s videos and text messages. The messages showed ongoing contact initiated by the other party and statements that conflicted with the initial account. We presented these credibility issues and the weak proof of any violation, and the State dismissed the motion.

Charge

Terroristic Threat Against a Family or Household Member

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #3

Allegations

After a domestic dispute at a residence, the complainant went to the station with a companion and reported that our client threatened to kill her and relatives. We obtained the 911 recording, bodycam, and the probable cause affidavit, and compared them against her prior sworn statements and text history. The timeline reflected a multi‑day delay, key details shifted between versions, and no independent witness reported hearing a threat. We presented these credibility and proof problems to the prosecution, and the State dismissed the case.

Charge

Resisting Arrest (Class A)

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #5

Allegations

The incident began at a medical facility, where our client, in severe pain and under active treatment, was taken into custody and accused of resisting arrest, search, or transport. We obtained the officer reports and bodycam, and compiled medical records documenting significant injuries, prescriptions, and mobility limitations. The footage and records raised serious doubt that she intentionally impeded officers or used force. We presented these issues to the prosecutor and made clear we were prepared to litigate. The case was dismissed.

Charge

Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon

Location

Williamson County, CCL3

Allegations

During a late-night traffic stop, officers learned the client had a firearm in the vehicle and filed an unlawful carrying of a weapon charge. We obtained the police reports, clarified how the firearm was stored and transported, and opened a dialogue with the prosecutor about the legal elements and a fair way to resolve the case. We arranged a voluntary forfeiture of the firearm and pressed for a non-conviction outcome. The state agreed and dismissed the charge, sparing the client any conviction or additional court obligations.

Charge

Unlawful Restraint

Location

Williamson County, CC5

Allegations

Police were called after an argument in a vehicle, and the complainant later alleged the client would not let them leave. Both had been drinking, and the story shifted in later communications, including statements that they did not want to press charges and apologized for calling police. We obtained the reports and compared statements, highlighting the lack of independent corroboration for any restraint. We presented these credibility problems to the prosecutor and made clear we were prepared to litigate. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Driving With a Suspended License

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #3

Allegations

Following a minor fender bender, the other driver made a report and officers later ran our client's information, discovering the license was suspended from an older alcohol case. A warrant issued and the client was arrested for driving with a suspended license. We moved quickly to verify the license had since been reinstated, obtained SR22 and reinstatement receipts, and organized those records. We met with the prosecutor, presented the documentation and timeline, and pressed for a clean resolution. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Duty on Striking a Structure, Fixture, or Highway Landscaping

Location

Williamson County, County Court at Law #3

Allegations

Police alleged our client struck a roadside fixture and failed to meet the statutory duty to report the damage. We obtained the patrol report, bodycam, and scene photos, and focused on the elements the state had to prove, including the amount of damage, whether an identifiable owner or agency was available, and what steps were taken to notify authorities. The evidence left key facts in dispute and did not clearly establish a violation. After negotiations and pressure to proceed without solid proof, the prosecutor dismissed the case.

Charge

Public Intoxication

Location

Williamson County, Round Rock Municipal Court

Allegations

The client was arrested for public intoxication after an incident at a construction site where officers conducted roadside tests and claimed he was a danger. No breath or blood test was taken. We obtained the body camera footage, 911 call, and reports, and challenged whether the evidence actually showed danger to self or others as required. While pressing those issues, we also presented mitigation the client completed promptly, including community service. The prosecution agreed to dismiss, and the case was closed.
