The client, a 38 year old School Teacher residing in the state of Florida, hired Boston Massachusetts Defense Lawyer Steven J. Topazio to represent her when she learned that there was an outstanding default warrant for her arrest. Attorney Topazio investigated the matter and met with the Assistant District Attorney to first seek the district attorney’s consent to allow him to file a motion seeking court permission to waive his client’s appearance at the next court proceeding so he could recall the default warrant in his client’s absence. Attorney next provided the Assistant District Attorney with a copy of the police report prior to scheduling the case in court so as to give the district attorney an opportunity to determine if the case was still viable after all this time. Today, Boston Defense Lawyer Topazio convinced the court to waive his client’s presence and to recall the default warrant in her absence. After listening to both sides, Boston Criminal Attorney Topazio persuaded the court to dismiss the charge against his client for want of prosecution.
