Drug Possession Case Results in Travis, TX

Charge

Possession of a Controlled Substance (Felony)

Location

Travis County, 390th District Court

Allegations

Our client was charged with felony possession after officers reported finding a controlled substance. We obtained the discovery, including reports, video, and lab documentation. Our review focused on whether the seizure was lawful and if the evidence could be reliably tied to the client. We raised these deficiencies with the prosecutor and made clear we were prepared to litigate suppression and chain of custody issues. The prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Possession of Marijuana

Location

Travis County, cc7

Allegations

After an encounter with police, our client was charged with possession of marijuana. Early negotiations produced an agreement to dismiss the case if the client completed specific conditions, including a series of clean drug tests. When the state later tried to change course, we pointed them to the original terms and pressed to hold them to it. We compiled and delivered proof of multiple negative UAs and other compliance the prosecutor requested. The state agreed, and the court dismissed the charge.

Charge

Possession of LSD (Less than 20 Abuse Units)

Location

Travis County, 460th District Court

Allegations

During a traffic stop for speeding, officers searched the vehicle and reported finding a small amount of LSD along with marijuana. We focused on how the search began and whether the state could lawfully connect the discovery to the stop. After obtaining the evidence, we scrutinized the reports and challenged the state's probable cause for the search. We made clear we were prepared to pursue a suppression hearing. The prosecution dismissed the possession case.
