Orange County - Client was a passenger in a vehicle that was stopped for
a traffic infraction. The car was searched, and law enforcement found
a concealed firearm and a bag with $58,000 in cash. Law enforcement took
the money and the gun pursuant to an “investigation.” Longwell
Lawyers’ expert criminal trial attorney, Benjamin Jones, successfully
convinced the law enforcement agency’s attorneys that there was
nothing to legitimately investigate that could justify keeping the cash
in evidence and, even if there was, law enforcement had not followed the
proper procedures to keep the cash via civil forfeiture proceedings. Our
client received all his money back.
