Craig Flory convinced the District Attorney’s Intake Division to decline indictment on his client’s felony Assault of a Public Servant charge. After reviewing the probable cause affidavit, Flory argued that it alleged no injury against the complaining witness police officer (a necessary element of the charge). Further, he successfully argued and that not even a Class C misdemeanor assault charge was warranted against his client, since there was no evidence that she had intentionally or knowingly caused offensive or provocative physical contact with the officer as required by statute. No criminal case was filed against his client.
