Instead of being the lost soul of a loner drifting aimlessly having a peripatetic wind, I'm now preferring something with more bite to it. As experience is just nature cruel way of giving the exams first followed by their lessons; you eventually reach a point where silence can no longer be contained no matter the cost.

Hello Claudia, Ingrid, Whitney, Marian, and Lauren,
Now that I'm no longer being represented by our Law Office of the Public Defender, I really do need knowing any and all information able sharing with me as to what discussions there were about my case with other lawyers representing the interest of DeKalb County and these so called neighbors of mine.
Don't worry! Certainly do realize that never going to happen. So could we start with allowing me inspecting...FIRST...then...REQUESTING... copies made of whatever files, folders, attorney?work products...AVAILABLE...to me.
This would include any hard copy evidence proving to me that indeed our Law Office of the Public Defender DeKalb County did reach out to our Glenn Memorial ?UNITED? Methodist Church/Secular Methodist Liberal Arts and Science Emory University on my behalf my attempts seeking some sort of reconciliation? This non-criminal facts finding hearing justice been seeking for the past seven and one half years!
This would include hard copy evidence of court ordered competency evaluation I was more than happy allowing our Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities performing at Public Defender's insistence?
As well as any and all information relating to request having subpoenaed from American Alternative/Accountability Court Services; copies of the forms CEO Jacques Khorozian having had me filling out my failed attempt at satisfying our Honorable Judge Matthew McCoyd's request I submit to a clinical evaluation for substance abuse?
Also, any information about this "agreement that contents of these signs would not made part of the trial" Our Honorable Judge McCoyd referenced more than once these hearing of mine?
Anything! Everything! Able! Sharing! With me! Period!

David Abbott has achieved superior results in superior court.
My approach is rigorous and data driven. I ask hard questions early in a case. Is a jury trial winnable? Is it worth the risk? Is it the best use of my client’s resources? How have your judge and your prosecutor dealt with similar cases in the past? How can we improve this? Is rehabilitation an alternative to punishment?
If you want pragmatic, clear eyed advice, please call me at 404-514-5900 for a free consultation.

About The Abbott Law Firm
Led by David Abbott, the Abbott Law Firm handles criminal defense, DUI, and appeals cases in McDonough, Henry County, and surrounding Metro Atlanta.
The criminal justice system can be needlessly cruel. I work to tame it. In every case, my basic goal is the same: protecting my client’s human potential. My tactics are flexible. If an officer broke the law or was sloppy, I’m not afraid to embarrass him. If negotiation locks in a good deal, all the better. When a victim lies, I impeach her. When prosecutors are unreasonable, I go over their head and argue our case to a judge or jury.

Felony Charges in Henry County
People charged with major felonies (murder, armed robbery, drug trafficking, child molestation) risk long prison sentences. Many of these crimes carry mandatory minimums if convicted. Murder carries a mandatory life sentence. Armed robbery carries a mandatory sentence of 10 years without parole. The goal in defending these cases is clear: avoid a conviction in order to avoid a crushing prison sentence. Jury trials are common in major felony cases because the prosecution will seldom make a plea offer worth taking.
Less serious charges present more complex choices. In Henry County, a first offender charged with a minor felony (simple possession of drugs, theft of less than $10,000) rarely gets prison time. Such an offender may serve days or weeks in jail or be ordered to complete drug treatment. However, a felony conviction can be devastating to your career even if you don’t spend a day in jail. Minor felony cases call for more subtle lawyering than major felonies, as prosecutors have significant room for negotiation. Therefore, hiring a respected lawyer can often times improve your plea offer merely by creating the credible threat of a difficult jury trial.
In some cases, especially drug cases, evidence can be suppressed if it was seized improperly. I have the trial skills to get acquittals in winnable cases, the judgment to know which cases I can’t win, and the integrity to tell my clients the truth and pursue realistic goals.
Sentencing Is Often More Important Than Guilt or Innocence
Georgia gives judges huge discretion over what sentence to impose. For instance, burglary can be punished by 2 years probation or 20 years in prison. A good attorney will point out your accomplishments and potential, so that the judge sees more than just your mistakes.
The penalties for many offenses can vary widely. Hiring effective representation often makes a huge difference in the fines or prison time you may face if found guilty. Every case is different, and nowhere is that more clear than in sentencing.

DUI - Not Guilty After Jury Trial
Practice Area:
DUI and DWI
Outcome:
DUI - Not Guilty After Jury Trial
Description:
My client was charged in Fulton County with DUI, driving the wrong way on a divided highway, and other traffic offenses. The State Trooper in the case observed my client turn the wrong way on a divided highway after leaving an exotic dance club at 12:30 a.m. The State Trooper activated his dashboard camera and videotaped my client driving the wrong way on a divided highway. The State Trooper also videotaped my client attempting to complete the so-called Field Sobriety Tests. My client was recovering from stomach surgery and was unable to complete the so-called Field Sobriety Tests or complete a breath test at the police station. My client then submitted a urine sample, which the State Trooper kept in his locker for three (3) days. The prosecutor insisted on going forward with the case and the jury acquitted ("found my client not guilty") on all charges, including the DUI charge, except for driving the wrong way on a divided highway. My client was only required to pay a $600.00 fine.
Felony Dropped to Misdemeanor at Jury Trial
Practice Area:
Criminal defense
Outcome:
Dropped to Misdemeanor
Description:
My client was an inmate in the State Prison System. He was charged with Felony Obstruction of an Officer for hitting a corrections officer. My client faced 5 years in prison if he was convicted of a felony at jury trial. I learned prior to jury trial that my client's mother had just passed away, that my client received a letter in prison that his mother passed away, and that the corrections officer made a disparaging remark about my client and his mother right after my client received the news of his mother's death. During juror selection, I spoke with the District Attorney about the so-called victim's role in my client's case. The District Attorney offered a guilty plea with 2 years probation for my client, which we refused. The District Attorney then offered my client a misdemeanor plea and 12 months probation, which we accepted.
