Case: Misdemeanor Theft
Attorney: Autumn R. Stokes
Result: Autumn’s client was facing Misdemeanor Theft charges and needed help. Autumn went above and beyond, reviewing evidence from the prosecution and encouraging her client to take proactive steps to help with their case. Ultimately Autumn was able to negotiate with the prosecutor, securing a continuance for dismissal. This means that the prosecutor will dismiss the charges after one year upon the client successfully meeting certain conditions. This also means that Autumn’s client is still allowed the presumption of innocence, since the case will be dismissed without any admission of fault or wrongdoing.
