State v. L.M.

Stay of Adjudication, an inconceivable result, after the complaint was drafted... this gentleman, who was on an epic (and likely life-ending) bender, was confronted by his teenage son, and then five police officers--and he did not react well. The entire event is videotaped, including our man stealing a taser and attempting to further harm an officer. He narrowly avoided a felony complaint, but the city was not happy to receive him... until Dan and the client proved his sobriety, and his commitment to his family, and his career as an E.R. nurse. The result? Staggering success, no jail, no loss of employment, a couple of utterly heartfelt apology letters to the officers (and his son) involved, and another amazing win for North Star.
