Unlicensed Operation of a Motor Vehicle
Client was hard working out-of-state tech worker on an H-1 visa. He had come to Massachusetts in the past and was caught speeding and he had no license. He was cited for speeding and the criminal charge of unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle and he wanted it fixed as soon as possible, without coming to Massachusetts in person get the best deal possible. Attorney Barabino promised nothing but his best efforts. Client agreed and after a brief interview on the phone began the process of preparing for the arraignment. He began with a motion and affidavit to waive the defendant’s presence and allow him to appear on zoom-thus allowing him to not travel to Massachusetts. That motion was ALLOWED. Then Attorney Barabino provided information to the District Attorney in advance of the hearing requested the possibly that they may dismiss the matter PRIOR to the arraignment so that the arraignment will not appear on his criminal record—to which the hard-working District Attorney agreed to do. When the matter was called before the judge, the matter was dismissed, PRE-ARRAIGNMENT. Case Closed.
RESULT: Case DISMISSED, PRIOR to Arraignment.
