DISMISSED - Penal Code 240 and 242 Assault and Battery Charges Dropped, Client Released from Jail
Client was being held in custody on five charges: Penal Code 242 (battery), Penal Code 240 (assault), and three counts of Health & Safety Code 11364 (possession of paraphernalia). In our negotiation, the DA agreed to dismiss all charges in exchange for Client pleading No Contest to a single count of Penal Code 415(2)(Disturbing the Peace with Loud or Unreasonable Noise), which is a less serious charge on one's record. Client was released from jail that day.
