Possession of stolen property charges dismissed (Manhattan)

2019

Lance’s client was found in possession of stolen property which was a security device that belonged to the City of New York. Our client had an old felony conviction which is something that often factors into the prosecutor’s view of the case. Our client contacted us for help. Notwithstanding our client’s past conviction, we were able to present sufficient mitigating information to the prosecutor to convince them to offer a great deal under the circumstances. Our client plead guilty only to a non-criminal violation, disorderly conduct, and performed community service.
