Client was detained in a parking lot with several other individuals where the officer suspected illegal drugs in their car. An investigation followed where the officer was granted the ability to search their vehicle which turned up marijuana in an amount less than one ounce and our client was subsequently charged. The case was in Sandy Springs Municipal Court where Mr. Sullivan was able to negotiate a pretrial diversion disposition – meaning that if the client passed a few drug tests, paid an administrative fee, and performed 24 hours of community service, the charge would be dismissed (resulting in no conviction).
