October 16, 2017
Larceny over $250.00
Client was a young man who stole over five thousand ($5,000.00) dollars' worth of electronic goods from a chain store in the course of his employment there. The case against client was strong as the store had investigated the case for months and assembled a trove of electronic evidence. In addition, they secured an admission to the crime from client prior to him being formally charged. Negotiations continued for several months and parties involved reached an agreement: client would admit to the charge, he wouldn't pay any probation fees, would agree to take a theft program, and would pay back the money for the items that he stole. In the end, no conviction would appear on his record as long as he complies with the agreement.
Result: ADMISSION TO CHARGE WITH CONDITIONAL AGREEMENT FOR DISMISSAL

Larceny over $250.00
Client was a young mother who stole an item worth close to five hundred dollars. A conviction and even an admission to this felony charge would have been very destabilizing to her life. Attorney Barabino sat down with the attentive and professional district attorney. After consultation, an agreement was made for client to begin counseling, pay a five-hundred-dollar civil fee, and after a period of six months, the case would, in exchange, be dismissed in its entirety.
Result: Pre-trial Probation/ GENERAL CONTINUANCE WITH PRESUMPTION OF INNOCENCE AND DISMISSAL.
