Charge:
Felony Terroristic Threats, Misdemeanor Domestic Assault
Result:
Negotiated plea agreement – Client pled guilty to all charges, but was sentenced with a Continuance for Dismissal.
Story:
Our client was charged with terroristic threats and domestic assault following an argument at his home. Naros Law recognized our Client’s need for intervention of a substance abuse issue, and was able to get him the help he needed to fully address his disorder. Through treatment, family counseling, and anger management, our Client was able to repair his relationship with his family and demonstrate to the Court that he had made significant changes to his life. The Judge and Prosecutor agreed that the Client deserved an opportunity to prove they are law-abiding by sentencing all charges under a Continuance for Dismissal. This means that upon successful completion of probation and all aspects of the sentence, our Client’s plea would be dismissed, and a criminal conviction would not remain on their record. This gave our Client incentive to do everything within their power to continue the positive changes they had already made, and to become a better person despite this incident.
