Assault and Battery
A hard-working father, employee, and candidate for the police academy was arrested for fighting with his brother. Police charged the client with assault and battery. Mandatory disqualification from carrying a firearm if convicted, among many other consequences such as job termination, refusal to enter school property, and possibly jail time. During the case, the District Attorney sought to summon potentially damaging medical records into the court. Fortunately, after a complicated hearing attempt to obtain those records, the Commonwealth chose a compromise, which resulted in a trial date set and a dismissal on that trial date. As agreed, a dismissal entered on the trial date. Case Dismissed. Client can reapply for License to Carry Concealed Permit (LTC) card right away.
Result: Charge of Assault and Battery, DISMISSED. Client CAN reapply for License to Carry Concealed Permit (LTC) card, right away.
