Charge of Assault by Means of a Dangerous Weapon Dismissed and Charges of Affray and Improper Storage of a Firearm to be Dismissed

Our client is an engineer with several degrees from top academic institutions. In August of 2022 he was at a bar with friends when a fight broke out between his group and another group. The fight continued out in the street when all parties left the bar. The police arrived and all parties fled. A few were caught by the responding officers. The apprehended people told the officers that our client had pulled a gun on them and fled the scene in a car. The officers located the car, registered to our client. They observed a gun in the car in plain view. The car was impounded and searched. The gun was registered to our client. He was charged with assault by means of a dangerous weapon under G.L. c. 265 section 15B. This is a felony in Massachusetts. He was also charged with improper storage of a firearm under G.L. c. 140 section 131L. Attorney Neyman was able to get the felony dismissed. The improper storage charge was continued without a finding (CWOF). That charged will be dismissed in a few months.
