Results: Theft Dismissals


These summaries do not guarantee results in any future case. The outcome of any individual criminal case depends on the facts and the law in that case.


Theft of Auto Parts. Police report indicated that my client had confessed to the officer that he committed the crime. I showed that the confession was illegally obtained. If you look closely at the Dismissal Form, you'll see an "x" next to a sentence that says "Other:," and then the rest of the hand writing is not legible. That hand writing says: "pending further investigation." That means if the prosecutor later figures out how to prove the case, he can refile it. That rarely happens. Result: case dismissed.
