Plea to an amended count of misdemeanor disorderly conduct. The client must complete a mere five days of community service, pay a minimal fine, and follow the terms of her CHIPs case for one year of probation. This is an incredible result for the client because the consequences of a conviction at trial - which was likely - would have resulted in her being kicked out of the Army without pension, she could have lost her job, and, most importantly, it would have made it all but impossible to fight for reunification with her kids in the pending CHIPs matter. But, now, with the plea to a disorderly conduct with zero facts relating to her children, none of those collateral consequences are in play and she can work towards getting her children back. This truly is a fantastic result that was negotiated on her behalf.

Dakota County. Case dismissed. Here, the issue of a lack of actual, verifiable notice to the client that his driving privileges were cancelled, was argued forcefully by Mr. Adkins, to a fantastic end. Be sure to hire lawyers who will go beyond simply accepting the State's assertions. Diligent discovery and investigation led to this outright dismissal. This is what distinguishes North Star Criminal Defense from the pack. This client gets to return to the roadway without fear, and without further needless blemishes on his record.
