Gun Charge Dismissed
State of Minnesota vs. R.J.
- Hennepin County District Court
- Prohibited Person in Possession of a Firearm (Minn. Stat. § 624.713.1(2))
- Case Dismissed
READ CASE SUMMARY
Mr. Wilson moved the court to suppress evidence (firearm) based on an unconstitutional search and seizure in violation of the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution and Article I, Section 10 of the Minnesota Constitution.
At the motion hearing, Mr. Wilson made an oral argument and cross examined the police officer(s) involved in the case. Mr. Wilson also submitted a written brief in support of the motion.
After taking the case under advisement, the court ultimately granted the suppression motion, ordering that the illegally seized evidence could not be used at trial.
The case was subsequently dismissed by the prosecutor.

State of Minnesota vs. T.J.
- Ramsey County District Court
- Carrying Pistol While Under Influence of Alcohol (Misdemeanor; Minn. Stat. § 624.7142.1(4))
- Charge Dismissed; Carry Permit Reissued
READ CASE SUMMARY
Mr. Wilson made a motion to dismiss the firearms charge based on lack of probable cause.
A motion hearing was held and Mr. Wilson cross-examined the police officer involved in his client’s arrest, which (in part) revealed that the charge lacked probable cause.
After the hearing, the judge took the case under advisement and ultimately granted Mr. Wilson’s motion dismissing the firearms charge for lack of probable cause.
This dismissal allowed his client to retain his firearms carry permit.
Domestic Assault Charge Dismissed
State of Minnesota vs. R.D.
- Anoka County District Court
