My 19 year old client was in custody on a no-bail hold while he faced serious charges involving robbery and participation in a criminal street gang. He was alleged to have been with a group of kids who tried to enter a marijuana grow. Some kids were armed, but my client wasn’t and there were no guns in his car. We prepared and went to Preliminary Hearing, where the District Attorney decided not to proceed on the gang allegation and the judge dismissed the robbery for lack of evidence. Based on this, the no-bail hold was modified and my client was released to his family.
