Disguise to Obstruct Justice
Client was hard working contractor who was a target of a drug task force. The task force pulled him over with no license, and client giving a fake name and information resulted in arrest. In addition, task force had warrants. Upon searching the motor vehicle it found various drugs of different categories. He was charged with illegally possessing those as well. Also, client had recently been released after doing a committed jail sentence for various crimes. Fortunately, Attorney Barabino and client reviewed the case and Attorney Barabino found an imperfection with the arrest process---an imperfection that could lead to a judge determining that the arrest was illegal and that the evidence should be thrown out. After Attorney Barabino provided the court with a detailed legal memorandum, a hearing was set. Attorney Barabino and an experienced, seasoned DA, reviewed the progress client had been making and the probability that defense could be successful. Since drug screens would not be compatible with his job, both parties agreed on a two-year Continued Without a Finding (CWOF), which meant that the case would be dismissed after two years. No drug screens or attendance with probation would be necessary.
RESULT: Motion to Suppress, FILED, Probation with NO CONVICTIONS if continues crime free for two years. NO DRUG SCREENS OR PROBATION CONDITIONS REQUIRED.
