INDECENT EXPOSURE: DISMISSED at CLERK’S HEARING

Client, 43-year-old car salesman, was charged with Indecent Exposure stemming from an incident in which his neighbors reported that they observed him standing naked in front of his apartment window for an extended period of time. At the Magistrate’s Hearing, Attorney Patrick J. Noonan cross-examined the neighbor-witnesses and established that each witness did not observe the Defendant’s genitals exposed. The charge was dismissed on the grounds that there was insufficient probable cause to support the criminal complaint.

Result: Attorney Patrick J. Noonan persuades Clerk-Magistrate not to issue criminal complaint due to lack of evidence.
