DWI Charges in New York County Dismissed Immediately Prior to Trial

3425166_1

Once again, persistence on the part of the attorneys at Addabbo and Greenberg resulted in a dismissal, after more than one year of litigation, of the charge of Operating a Motor Vehicle While Intoxicated as well as Operating a Motor Vehicle While Impaired by Alcohol. The Defendant was charged on December 29 th, 2013 after being stopped at a “check point” and after the Intoxilyzer Machine registered a .09% by weight of alcohol in his blood. Throughout motion practice, criminal defense attorneys Todd Greenberg refused an offer of Driving While Impaired on the ground that the Defendant was, simply, not intoxicated. After several adjournments in the Trial Part, the case was marked ready and, again, our attorneys refused any plea offer and demanded a trial. On February 24 th, 2015, the case was sent to a Jury Part for Trial. Again, the offer was refused and instead of proceeding to a trial, the People conceded that they could not prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt which resulted in a complete dismissal of all charges. Needless to say, our client, a Licensed Stock Broker, was ecstatic and vindicated! If you are charged with Driving While Intoxicated you need attorneys who know the law and are willing to go all the way to prove you are not guilty. At Addabbo and Greenberg, we have that experience as attested to once again by our very happy client. Call 718-268-0400 or visit us at www.addabboandgreenberg.com if you find yourself in this most unfortunate circumstance.

Gun Charges at JFK Airport Dismissed and Sealed

Gun Charges at JFK Airport Dismissed and Sealed

New York weapons and gun laws are among the strictest in the country as our client, a licensed gun holder in Nassau County, came to find out when he accidentally brought the wrong bag to JFK airport on his way to catch a flight to a meeting. Although licensed in Nassau County, a New York City Special Carry License is needed to carry in New York City. The Queens District Attorney charged our client with Criminal Possession of a Weapon as a Class C Felony, with a mandatory minimum of 3 ½ years! Mr. Greenberg moved swiftly to get the client released from jail, conferenced the case with the Queens District Attorney’s Office, and put together a mitigation package. The case was Dismissed and Sealed within days of the arrest! It is extremely important that your attorney be highly experienced in dealing with similar cases with both the Queens District Attorney’s office and the Queens Courts. Don’t leave your future in the hands of chance after being arrested at an NYC airport, licensed or not. Reach out to Addabbo & Greenberg at 718-268-0400 and speak to attorneys who know what needs to be done!!!
