Case Results

At Melchert. Hubert. Sjodin, PLLP, we have a proven track record of success in various legal cases. Here are some examples of our recent case results:

• Underage Drinking and Driving: An officer conducted field sobriety tests on J. Majors after pulling her over and determining that she was illegally under the influence of alcohol. Police then arrested and charged her with DWI and Underage Drinking and Driving. At a pretrial hearing, the officer acknowledged that the vehicle was not swerving or in any other way acting in a suspicious manner. Because the officer lacked the probable cause to stop Ms. Majors' vehicle, the Court dismissed all charges and reinstated her license in a later hearing.

• Sexual Assault: Jose Ramirez was charged with first-degree criminal sexual conduct with maximum penalties of up to thirty years in prison and a presumptive sentence of twelve years. Based on the plea negotiations, Mr. Ramirez was released after serving less than one year in county jail.

• Minneapolis DWI: Law enforcement officers received a call that a vehicle was driving erratically. Officers responded and stopped the vehicle without observing any driving conduct that suggested the driver was impaired. At a pretrial hearing, the officer acknowledged that he did not observe any driving conduct that suggested the driver was impaired. Because the officer lacked the probable cause to stop the vehicle, the Court dismissed all charges and reinstated the driver's license in a later hearing.
