Jury Trials

Utah Criminal Defense Wins

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.

Suppression and Dismissal
DUI and Drug Charges

Client pulled over by police for investigation of DUI. Mr. Howard filed a motion to suppress challenging the basis for the warrantless search and seizure. Police had received a report that client might be drunk. By challenging the basis for the report and demonstrating that police observation of client’s driving for nearly two miles showed no traffic violations or other indications of impairment, the prosecutor conceded error and moved to dismiss the DUI.

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.
