Credit for Time served for client facing 57 years on probation for drug trafficking
Our client was on probation for previous drug trafficking cases. With no right to a jury trial the government had all the power. But we convinced them that the cases had disrupted our client’s life for almost 10 years, and that he had done the best he could on probation. They agreed to give him credit for all his time and take him off probation.
Charges: Trafficking of Cocaine, Possession of Cocaine
Time Faced: 57 years in prison with a 3-year minimum mandatory sentence
Result: Credit for time served, no more probation, client released
