State v. C.K.

No additional custodial time. This matter concerned a gentleman charged in both Minnesota and Wisconsin for methamphetamine distribution, with qualifying prior convictions and large weights being moved. Mr. Adkins labored mightily to reduce his exposure in Minnesota, successfully, so that the client could apply for (successfully!) the Boot Camp program and planned release by January 1, 2019. However, a judge in neighboring St. Croix County considered a consecutive sentence, or otherwise delaying the client for as much as 18 months before starting that boot programming. Shirlene Perrin and Dan Adkins convinced that judge to settle for the time client had already spent in his local jail, and his entry into the Minnesota programming is back on track. North Star has made itself the most successful multiple-jurisdiction criminal defense firm in the Upper Midwest, with care and foresight and hard, hard work.
