Jennifer Gray, Counsel at Flannery Georgalis, LLC, recently resolved a complicated criminal matter that involved a young client and an officer’s assumption, leading to a case worth a second look.
Park rangers stopped Gray’s client, an out-of-state nature enthusiast who suffers from generalized anxiety and panic disorder, for speeding in an Ohio national park. During the stop, one of the rangers suspected impairment due to the client’s nervous reactions. Gray’s client voluntarily submitted to a field sobriety test but did not pass.
In court for their first appearance, Gray argued that her client’s anxiety, not any impairment, was the cause of the behavior. Gray’s persuasive approach and strategic disclosure of her client’s mental health treatment convinced the Assistant U.S. Attorney to dismiss all criminal charges. Gray’s client avoided the lifelong consequences of a federal criminal conviction and is now free to focus on a bright future.
