Criminal Defense Case Results in Ellis, TX

Charge

Misdemeanor Motion to Revoke Probation

Location

Ellis County, COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO 2

Allegations

While on misdemeanor probation, the state filed a motion to revoke based on new allegations and claimed violations of bond and supervision terms. We obtained the motion and underlying reports, broke down the timeline, and compared it to our client's documented check-ins and monitoring records. Several assertions did not line up with the compliance history. We communicated those problems to the prosecutor and made clear we were ready to contest the revocation. The state withdrew the motion and the court dismissed the case.

Charge

Duty on Striking an Unattended Vehicle

Location

Ellis County, COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO 2

Allegations

Police alleged the client struck a parked, unoccupied vehicle and left without leaving information. The client reported a significant memory gap from that night, raising concerns about possible involuntary intoxication. We obtained the crash report and dispatch records and pressed for all video and toxicology. We emphasized gaps in proof about what the client perceived at the scene and whether any meaningful opportunity to exchange information existed. Faced with those issues, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Accident Involving Injury

Location

Ellis County, 443RD JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT

Allegations

Police filed an accident involving injury charge after our client crashed into a parked car. From the start, we questioned whether anyone was actually hurt. We obtained the investigative file, pressed for the blood results, and had the toxicology reviewed for possible drink tampering given the client's memory gaps. The records showed property damage but no identifiable injured party, and the state’s file could not establish the required injury element. We presented those deficiencies, and the case was dismissed.
