Default Removed and Probation Terminated and Case Dismissed Against Man Charged With Various Motor Vehicle Crimes

Back in 1990 our client was charged with several motor vehicle crimes. The cases were continued without a finding (CWOF) on the condition that he pay $375 in fines. He never did and a default warrant was issued for him for violating his probation. Now, the man lives out of state and is applying for citizenship. His immigration lawyer found this case. He told the client that he needed to clean this up or his citizenship application would be rejected. His family hired us to address this. We were very lucky to be dealing with a very conscientious clerk’s office. They retrieved the file and provided us with a copy in a matter of hours. We got the district attorney to agree to removing the warrant, paying the fines and having the case dismissed. The judge did better for our client. She vacated the warrant, remitted the fees and dismissed the case. The impediment to citizenship has been removed.
