Possession of cocaine charge dismissed

RESULTS: Cocaine Possession Dismissal and Discharge

Our client was initially placed on 3 years of deferred adjudication after being arrested for cocaine possession, which is classified as a state jail felony. Understanding the impact that such a charge can have on our client’s future, our legal team worked diligently to explore options for early termination of the community supervision.

Strategy and Execution

After our client completed half of the community supervision term, we meticulously prepared and successfully petitioned the court for an early termination of the community supervision. Our goal was to demonstrate the client’s compliance and rehabilitation to secure a more favorable outcome.

Outcome

The court granted our petition, resulting in the early termination of community supervision. Consequently, our client received a dismissal and discharge of the cocaine possession charges. This positive outcome enables our client to seek non-disclosure of the offense, which if approved will offer them a fresh start and the opportunity to move forward without the burden of a felony conviction on their record.
