Case: State v. J.A.C. (CRIMINAL CHARGE #2) (Hillsborough County)
Charges: Domestic Battery (misdemeanor)
Date: May 13, 2021
Outcome: DISMISSED
Description: J.A.C. was arrested for domestic battery and quickly hired us. Immediately, we contacted the purported victim and the State Attorney’s intake department. Ultimately, the State agreed with us that further prosecution was not warranted, and the State DISMISSED the matter. With the case closed and speedy trial having run, the State could not revive the matter later when J.A.C. was arrested for a more serious, felony domestic battery against the same victim. Subsequently, our efforts to expunge this matter from J.A.C.’s record were frustrated when was arrested again. (See below for J.A.C.’s third arrest and dismissal.)
