Principal’s Expulsion Recommendation Overturned – On January 5, 2023, a hearing was held with the Pasco School Board to determine if our client should be expelled for a fight on school property. The school’s principal recommended expulsion despite our client not being the initial aggressor in the fight. After hearing testimony from our client and reviewing the video of the incident, the hearing officer elected not to expel our client.
Motion for Early Termination of Probation Granted in Pinellas County – Our client was placed on Youthful Offender Probation for three years. She completed all the special conditions of her probation within 18 months. The Honorable Judge, Joseph Bulone of Pinellas County, granted our Motion to Early Terminate on January 20, 2023, terminating her probation 18 months early.
Our 16-year-old client was initially charged in juvenile court in Hillsborough County with Robbery and Resisting an Officer without Violence. The State later decided to upgrade the charges to adult felony court. Even though our client had no prior record, the State Attorney wanted him to plea to adult felony charges and to complete adult felony probation. After depositions were completed, our office filed a Motion to Exclude the eyewitness’s testimony identifying our client. On the day of the motion hearing, the State presented no evidence to contest our motion, and the Judge dismissed the Robbery charge. After hearing an argument from our attorney regarding the Resisting charge, the Judge dismissed that charge as well.
