Diversionary Program Granted Felony Larceny & Fraud
Client was charged with Larceny in the 1^st degree, conspiracy to commit larceny in the first degree, and telephone fraud in relation to an alleged telephone scheme to defraud individuals of large sums of money by falsely claiming the individuals were the victims of fraud themselves or potentially associated with illegal activity. The most serious charges are Class B Felonies in CT. After getting involved we were able to assist with the client’s extradition and hearing in CT to get his bonds reduced and begin his defense of the case. The matter was further complicated by the client’s facing charges in another jurisdiction. In reviewing the state’s evidence we were able to put together compelling legal arguments and defenses to the claims and ultimately the client was granted admission into a diversionary program. If there are no further issues the charges against the client will ultimately be dismissed.

Our Client was transported from the scene by ambulance and transported to the hospital for injuries to his neck, where he was diagnosed with disc bulges at multiple levels of his cervical spine.
