Our client was charged with Criminal Mischief in the 4th Degree. The police arrested her after she was alleged to have broken several picture frames at an ex boyfriends house. We advocated for our client and filed motions in preparation of taking this matter to trial. As part of our motions, we filed a motion to dismiss in the interest of justice using the standards set out in CPL 170.40. The Judge was convinced based on that motion that it would serve the interest of justice that these charges be dismissed rather than taken to trial.
