Resisting Arrest/ Obstruction of Justice
(Penal Code Section 148(a) (1) )
Orange County Criminal Attorney
Testimonial
I was involved in a physical altercation with police while I was under the influence. The police claim I was fighting with them and calling them names. As such I was charged with Resisting Arrest – Obstructing Justice under Penal Code Section 148 (a) (1) and Public Intoxication under Penal Code Section 647 (f). I could have faced up to one year in jail on this case. I hired Attorney Will Bruzzo to represent me because of his familiarity with the courts and the district attorney. Mr. Bruzzo showed that I was in alcohol treatment and otherwise trying to make something of myself. After a few visits to court Mr. Bruzzo got the entire case DISMISSED. I am very happy with the result and I would enthusiastically Mr. Bruzzo for any criminal matter.

I was charged with Assault on a Peace Officer (Penal Code Section 241(b)); Battery on an Officer (Penal Code Section 243(b)) and Resisting Arrest (Penal Code Section 148(a) (1)). These charges occurred as a result of an altercation I got into with a Police Officer in Orange County. I was looking at up to one year in jail for these offenses. I hired William W. Bruzzo to represent me because of his reputation and his familiarity with the courts in Orange County. I told Mr. Bruzzo that not only did I not assault the officer in question but that he assaulted me without reason or provocation. I realized that for the most part it would be my word against the officer’s. Mr. Bruzzo took my case and began investigating the officer by filing motions which requested the personnel records of the officer in question. The County of Orange fought to keep the records from being revealed but Mr. Bruzzo won in the end. The personnel records of the officer in question revealed that he had had problems with violence in the past. Mr. Bruzzo used this information in his negotiations with the District Attorney. In the end, the District Attorney agreed to DISMISS all the charges against me! I am very grateful to Mr. Bruzzo for his work and I would enthusiastically recommend him for any criminal matter.
