San Bernardino County Case Number TSB 901673:
This was a DUI case. Attorney Mark Cantrell was able to convince
the District Attorney that the "rising blood alcohol defense"
was present. The DUI was dismissed and the case settled for
a ticket for speeding and no turn signal.
San Bernardino County Case Number TWV803095: This was a DUI
case where the blood test came back at .14, almost twice the
legal limit. Attorney Mark Cantrell brought a motion to suppress
the blood test results and the motion was granted over the strenuous
objections of the District Attorney. The case was then dismissed.
Riverside County Case Number INM189120: The defendant was stopped
due to "chirping tires" and arrested for DUI. Attorney Mark
Cantrell brought a motion to challenge the legality of the stop
and to suppress the evidence. The motion was granted and the
DA was forced to dismiss the entire case.
Riverside County Case Number INM187204: this case was a real
problem for the client due to the extremely high blood alcohol
level of .28 which is more that 3 times the legal limit. The
DA was trying to really hammer the client. Attorney Mark Cantrell
brought a motion to challenge the legality of the stop and to
suppress the evidence. The motion was granted and the DA was
forced to dismiss the entire case.
Indio Case Number INM192665: DUI reduced to an “exhibition of
speed.”
Rancho Cucamonga Case Number MWV 800334: Client charged with
soliciting prostitution. On the second day of trial the DA agreed
to let him plead to obstructing a sidewalk.
Rancho Cucamonga Case Number TWV701979. The DA wanted to make
an example of him. Attorney Cantrell set the matter for trial
and the DA lowered the offer to two moving violations as infractions.
Riverside Case Number SWM075149: This client was on probation
for a DUI when he picked up another DUI. The DA wanted a second
offense DUI with the usual 18 month school, interlock device,
and 30 days jail. Attorney Cantrell announced ready for trial.
On the first day of trial the client received what we wanted:
“wet reckless,” reinstate probation, and 5 days house arrest.
The DUI counts were dismissed.
Client “JD” Riverside Case Number INM 187708: Second DUI with
blood alcohol of 0.25%, which is more than 3 times the legal
limit. DA wanted him to admit the high blood alcohol allegation,
admit the prior, 5 years probation with the 18 month school,
two year license suspension and 30 days jail. Attorney Cantrell
successfully challenged the prior conviction and the District
Attorney was forced to accept what the client wanted, which
was a first time DUI, the 3 month school, 3 years probation
and 18 days house arrest.
Client “AP” Orange County Case Number 08CF2126: “AP” was facing
state prison for a felony DUI. Attorney Cantrell successfully
challenged the validity of one of his prior convictions and
the case was dropped to a misdemeanor. Attorney Cantrell then
asked the Judge to place him in “Veteran’s Court” which is a
special program designed for treatment – not punishment. “AP”
will now get the help he needs and NO jail time.
Client “MP” Riverside Case Number RIF 143505. “MP” was facing
state prison for a felony DUI. The District Attorney was not
willing to negotiate and was demanding state prison. “MP” knew
that he had made a bad choice but he had a family to support.
Attorney Mark Cantrell is never afraid to go straight to the
Judge and ask for a better deal. “MP” now has a new lease on
life and will not be going to prison. Instead, he will only
do 30 days in jail and community service.
Riverside Case Number INF 055020: Gang related attempted murder.
The codefendant was convicted by the jury and is facing hundreds
of years to life in prison. Attorney Cantrell’s client was NOT
CONVICTED at the same trial. After the trial, the case settled
for less time than the client offered before the trial.
Riverside Case Number RIF 137190: Gang related attempted murder.
Facing life in prison. Attorney Cantrell set for trial and client
was NOT CONVICTED.
Client “AJ” Riverside County Case Number SWF025444. This client
was falsely accused of one of the worst crimes imaginable: rape
of a child. You can imagine the nightmare experienced by “AJ.”
Attorney Mark Cantrell took the case to trial and the case was
dismissed by the Judge.
