BATTERY—TOUCH OR STRIKE (F.S. 784.03(1)(A)1)
CASE DISMISSED (NOLLE PROSEQUI)
Santa Rosa County, FL
22 de agosto de 2025
Client was charged with BATTERY—TOUCH OR STRIKE (F.S. 784.03(1)(A)1) stemming from an incident in Santa Rosa County, Florida. Even a misdemeanor battery allegation can carry outsized consequences: potential jail exposure, restrictive pretrial conditions (including no-contact orders), employment and housing complications, and reputational damage that can linger long after the case ends.
We focused on proof and credibility issues early, took a firm, trial-ready posture, and made it clear we were prepared to litigate rather than accept a weak outcome. The State ultimately filed a NOLLE PROSEQUI, ending the case and avoiding a conviction. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes; each case depends on its facts and circumstances.
