Our client was arrested and charged by the police with Possession of Cocaine, and Open Carrying of a Firearm. Upon receipt of the case, our attorney maintained contact with the client, reviewed the facts, and watched the calendar. The State failed to file charges against our client within 175 days, as required under his right to a Speedy Trial. As soon as the Speedy Trial period ran, our attorney immediately filed a Notice of Expiration of Speedy Trial and a Motion to Discharge the client, preventing the State from prosecuting him. Both charges were discharged, and the State cannot legally pursue the charges against him.

The video of the incident showed at least four officers officers being very aggressive with our client, enough so that our attorneys believed there was a Defacto Arrest without any reasonable suspicion or probable cause to believe a crime was commited. The officers also failed to read our client his Miranda Rights.

Officers approached our client after a suspected collision with another vehicle. The Officer later conducted an investigation and searched our client's car. During the search the Officer located a bag of cocaine next to the driver's seat of the vehicle.

Our attorneys began working on the case and found that the State did not have enough evidence to prove our client was in possession of the cocaine. Our attorneys spoke with the prosecutors and presented legal argument as to why the State did not have enough evidence against our client to support a conviction for possession of cocaine. The State eventually conceded that it was unlikely that they could prove that our client possessed cocaine and dropped the felony charge against our client.
