    Victories in Utah Criminal Defense Cases

    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.

    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.

    Client faced first-degree felony charges for selling drugs to undercover police officer. Mitigating evidence gathered by defense relating to client’s youth, family support, treatment options, and lack of prior history was pivotal in convincing prosecutor to allow an abeyance agreement to a single misdemeanor count. Case was ultimately dismissed.
