Congratulations to Jason Mitchell on another Jury Trial Win!

Mr. Michell’s client was accused of Driving Under the Influence of Marijuana.  This charge was enhanced -meaning made worse for him – because the vehicle he was operating was a ‘commercial’ vehicle.  The key to the case was to challenge the evidence of intoxication.  During extensive cross examination of the police witnesses, Mr. Mitchell used one officer to establish for the jury what constitutes evidence of being intoxicated by marijuana.  Then, Mr. Mitchell used another officer to establish what was actually observed in his client.  During his closing argument to the Jury, Mr. Mitchell connected the testimony of the two officers to convince the jury that what the prosecutor must proved for a marijuana conviction was not actually proved.  The Jury quickly returned a Not Guilty verdict!
