Another great result in Philadelphia, this time for a juvenile client who was accused of being among a group of teens who assaulted a man and stole his cell phone.

The young man and his family maintained that he was innocent, and Attorney Tom Kenny took his case to trial. The Philadelphia Family Court judge ruled that our client was not guilty of the following charges, and as a result, would not be sentenced to the severe penalties these charges can carry:

18 § 3701 §§ A1IV:
- Robbery; Inflicting Threat of Immediate Bodily Injury — A second-degree felony
18 § 3921 §§ A M1:
- Theft By Unlawful Taking-Movable Property — A first-degree misdemeanor
18 § 2705:
- Recklessly Endangering Another Person — A second-degree misdemeanor
