Robbery – REDUCED TO THEFT WITH EXPUNGEABLE PROBATION

Client was charged with robbing a person on the train. He was accused of forcibly taking an iPhone out of someone’s hand that was riding the train. The State of Illinois had obtained video surveillance of my client running with phone. After months of negotiations with the prosecutor, I was able to get the State of Illinois to reduce the charges to Theft. I then got the State to agree to give the client TASC probation which is expungeable from his record. That means if he completes probation successfully, it will be completely removed from his record! A robbery to a completely clean record!
