Felony Charges Against Client Dismissed-DA Very Fair
By Mark Johnson, California Criminal Defense Attorney

Today I resolved a case on behalf of a client who was charged with two felony counts related to grand theft and embezzlement, each charge holding up to 3 years state prison. It was an interesting case involving a public employee and allegations stemming from his employment. And misappropriation of funds.
I applaud the DA for not succumbing to any public pressure in light of recent Los Angeles cases involving public figures and financial corruption and there was earlier mediation attention in this case. The case ended with a complete dismissal of the felony charges and an added charge, a minor misdemeanor , of a California Corporations Code, which more accurately reflected my client’s conduct in this case.
