Kidnapping
Domestic Assault and Battery
Client was a young woman studying at a prestigious local college who had a tumultuous relationship with her boyfriend. Police alleged that Client locked him in his room and struck him. Client retained Attorney Barabino who immediately filed a motion to preserve electronic evidence which included key video, audio, and cell phone materials. After evaluating the case with Client, Attorney Barabino felt confident it would resolve and resolve favorably. Because of the charges, Client’s student visa was revoked so a goal was set to resolve the case in Client’s favor as quickly and efficiently as possible. That goal was achieved when Attorney Barabino was able to get trial viability and trial dates scheduled fast. At the trial viability date, which occurred this day, the Commonwealth acknowledged the insufficiency of the evidence against Client by moving to dismiss the charges.
RESULT: All charges DISMISSED. Client has NO RECORD. Client’s visa expected to be REINSTATED.
