Failure to Provide Driver’s License – Not Guilty Verdict

May 26, 2017

Client charged with failure to provide driver’s license and several civil citations. Conviction would have immigration consequences. Suspected that police were fishing for undocumented individuals and profiled my client. Conducted suppression hearing and submitted case to the judge for trial based on suppression testimony. Verdict: not guilty. The look on the prosecutor’s face was priceless! (And I had asked nicely for him to dismiss it beforehand. He should have listened.)
