Nathan Hitchcock Case Results: State v. J.H.
The client was charged with multiple counts of burglary, accused of breaking into businesses. When he was arrested, law enforcement found more than $50,000.00 dollars in cash on him and seized it all.
After the case resolved, law enforcement held onto the money, accusing him of stealing all that money without any actual proof of said theft. At a hearing, the judge denied the client their money, and Attorney Hitchcock promptly appealed the decision.
Conclusion
After further research and investigation, Attorney Hitchcock convinced the Court that the State must prove the money was not his in order to deny him his money, and the State admittedly could not prove whose money it was, despite having over a year to investigate.
The Court ruled in client’s favor and released the roughly $50,000.00. This result was only made possible due to Attorney Hitchcock’s skilled advocacy and relentless pursuit of justice for his client.
