State v. J.H.

Case Dismissed. The North Star team developed a strong defense to the allegations after conducting an intensive investigation into the night of the alleged incident, and the days that followed before the complainant came forward with the bogus allegations. Through the investigation, multiple witnesses went from being state-friendly or neutral to strong defense witnesses. Armed with new information and a strong defense, the North Star team strategically pressed the County Attorney and set the matter on for trial. With a looming trial, witnesses not being as favorable, and allegations that unraveled, the State was forced to dismiss the case because it knew it could not prove the allegations beyond a reasonable doubt. The innocent client is now formally innocent.
