Our client was charged with Larceny Over $1,200 and Improper Use of a Credit Card in Massachusetts. Both of these charges are felonies in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. A charge of larceny in Massachusetts can happen when somebody allegedly takes someone else’s property without their permission and does not give it back. If convicted of Larceny Over $1,200 our client could have faced potential incarceration, a criminal record, a fine up to $2,500, and probation.
First our attorney’s obtained and reviewed all discovery related to the case and discussed the circumstances of the case with our client. After a few court dates, we were able to negotiate a dismissal of both charges based on the payment of restitution to the alleged victim.
Occasionally, in larceny cases, a dismissal can be obtained for various reasons. It is important to have an experienced Massachusetts Criminal Defense Attorney represent you to negotiate a dismissal because they may be able to spot issues in your case.
As a result of our negotiations, the felony charges were dismissed against our client. Our client was able to avoid all the potential penalties and fines associated with these charges.
