State v. C.M.

January, 2026
Charges: 4 separate misdemeanor shoplifting cases (not charges, four separate cases)

Stay of adjudication to one misdemeanor case, while the other three cases are dismissed. The end result is a dismissal of all cases. On top of this ridiculously great outcome, the terms of probation are minimal - pay restitution, pay a small fine, and stay good for one year. Despite having a client who had no legal defenses available, Mr. Gempeler managed to obtain such an incredible outcome due to creative and savvy negotiations. Another fantastic result for a North Star client.
