Retiree Avoids Criminal Trespass Conviction

Posted On: May 14th, 2014

A retiree drove to a local park while waiting for his daughter to call him. A Columbus Police Department officer was on routine patrol and saw his car in the parking lot. The sign on the park said it was open from dusk until dawn and the car was in the park during restricted hours. After speaking with the gentleman, he was charged with criminal trespass. His case was then scheduled for arraignment in Franklin County Municipal Court.

Having no criminal convictions on his background and unsure of his options, this retiree contacted attorney Ben Luftman. After speaking with attorney Luftman, the Columbus Criminal Defense team was hired to represent him on the case.

Attorneys with LHA represented him on the case. We were able to negotiate a resolution where the prosecutor agreed to accept a $250 bond that was forfeited to the court in lieu of a guilty plea. Our client resolved his case quickly, avoided a conviction, jail time and probation, which were his goals in the case.
