Dr. Brendan's graduation from Dental School
In the true spirit of the Holiday and Christmas season, may we all be thankful and share in the hope for goodwill toward all.
One of the pleasures of this holiday season is to thank many people for their friendship, goodwill and the pleasant association I have enjoyed with the hundreds of friends and professional people I have dealt with over the past thirty years. We sincerely appreciate our relationships and are thankful for the confidence many people have shown in us. I again want to take the time to extend to these friends our sincere gratitude because it is friends and new clients that make our business grow. Client recommendation is a very important source of new clients to us.

3 Recent case Conviction reversed where state allegedly failed to provide defendant with the lab report detailing the test result of the suspected narcotics in search warrant. State v. Desir.
Defendant appealed from his conviction for possession of a Schedule I narcotic with intent to distribute. Defendant had moved to compel the state to provide him with certain discovery and to suppress the evidence seized following execution of a search warrant. After the trial court denied defendant's motions, he entered a conditional guilty plea, reserving his right to appeal the denial of his discovery motion. On appeal, defendant argued that his discovery motion should have been granted because the requested discovery would not have revealed any confidential information. Defendant further argued that the trial court failed to properly weigh the aggravating and mitigating factors and imposed an excessive sentence.
The court reversed defendant's conviction and remanded for further proceedings. The court noted that the state allegedly failed to provide defendant with the lab report detailing the test result of the suspected narcotics the informant provided to the detective who prepared the search warrant application, and also failed to provide recordings of purported consensual intercepts the detective listened to prior to seeking the warrant. Defense counsel submitted a written request for the information, acknowledging that redactions would be necessary to protect the informant's identity. Thus, the court held that the state's failure to respond made defendant's ability to succeed in his Franks hearing even more difficult since defendant could not prove that any of the detective's statements in the warrant application were false. The court held that the trial court erroneously denied defendant's discovery motion thereafter, incorrectly concluding that defendant was engaging in a "fishing expedition" for the informant's identity. The court ruled that the timing of the consideration of defendant's motions unduly prejudiced him because he needed the discovery materials to have a chance at succeeding in his Franks hearing. The court held that the state was required to provide the sought discovery. Docket A-2882-17T4
