People v. NR

- The Defendant was charged with Endangering the Life or Health of a Child. Also, the Defendant was a non-U.S. citizen, facing removal from the United States, if convicted. The Defense argued that the complaint was legally defective and unconstitutional, based upon a mandatory presumption that the child was alone for 15 minutes in a car, while it was cold outside. The matter proceeded to trial and the motion was heard with the trial. A directed finding of acquittal was entered, thus the Defendant was found Not Guilty and was totally exonerated without putting on any evidence.
