Utah Criminal Defense Wins

Not Guilty Verdict
Self Defense

Client charged with felony aggravated assault for using broken bottle as a weapon. Defense case focused on self-defense, resulting in not guilty verdict by the jury at trial.

Dismissed
Felony Insurance Fraud

Client charged with felony insurance fraud after claiming work-related injury prevented him from returning to work. Insurance investigators obtained video that included client kicking soccer ball in his yard. Government allegations of fraud were rebutted by medical records and prior administrative adjudications. Client’s job required heavy lifting. The claimed injury did not prevent him from kicking a ball but did prevent him from lifting. Prosecutor conceded error and voluntarily dismissed the case.

Abeyance and Dismissal
First-Degree Burglary

First-degree felony burglary charges with gang enhancement were filed based on client’s participation in burglary planned by other individuals. Based on client’s peripheral involvement and evidence his conduct was out of character, prosecutor consented to abeyance agreement at misdemeanor level that would ultimately lead to case dismissal.

Selected Victories

Not Guilty Verdict
Aggravated Assault

Client faced felony charges for allegedly using a gun to menace another driver during road rage incident. Defense trial strategy demonstrated that the alleged victim was the likely aggressor and that client had taken reasonable action to defend himself.

Appeal and Dismissal
DUI and Motion to Suppress

While represented by a different attorney, client was convicted of DUI by jury at trial. Mr. Howard filed an appeal challenging the district court’s denial of a motion to suppress. Appellate court reversed the trial court and the case was dismissed.
