New Trial Granted In Marijuana Case

A three judge panel of the Michigan Court of Appeals unanimously overturned Oakland County Circuit Judge Wendy Potts and 48th District Court Judge Marc B. Barron (Bloomfield Township) - reversing the possession of marijuana conviction of Mitch's client, suppressing the evidence and remanding the case for a new trial because of an illegal and unreasonable search and seizure by a Keego Harbor police officer in violation of the 4th Amendment of the United States Constitution (part of our bill of rights as Americans). Without evidence of marijuana, the prosecution will now be forced to dismiss the case.
