Case Results of Frederik Stig-Nielsen

Client accused of sexually assaulting step-daughters. I was brought into the case after the preliminary examination had been held and the client had been bound over. Through a motion to quash, I was able to get the case remanded to district court. The prosecutor later dismissed the charges

This was my first felony trial. I was able to get the client's confession excluded prior to trial. Through rigorous investigation and motion practice I uncovered several weaknesses in the Government's case. At trial I was able to tell a cohesive story to a jury that was willing to listen.

A motion to quash was able to win the day. There were some really complicated hearsay exceptions and the district court error in fashioning the bindover. The circuit court remanded the case after which the client was able to plead to a single count of CSC 4, at 2 year max.
