Our client is Juan Avila. He is a San Bernardino County Probation Officer.  The Riverside District Attorney’s Office filed charges against Mr. Avila for one count of Battery in violation of 242 for an offense that occurred on May 17, 2013. Both our client and I felt that the charges against Mr. Avila were unsupported by the law and evidence.  Juan and I decided to challenge the state’s evidence and we were focused on proving to a jury of his peers that Mr. Avila was not guilty of those charges.

We started trial on August 7, 2014. On August 18, 2014, 12 jurors from Riverside County voted that Mr. Avila was not guilty of the charges. Mr. Avila can now return to his work and resume his duties as a San Bernardino County Correction Probation Officer.
