Well, as an update for everyone, our lawyer (who cost $1,500 a piece and there is two of us) has postponed the case for several months. The prosecution finally gave us a plea bargain of time served plus a $200 fine, but they have no evidence against us so our lawyer is just waiting for the right prosecutor to dismiss the case.
Even if our case went to trial, there is no evidence to prove we were "trespassing". There are many flaws in the police report and even some lies in it. So even if they were to have "evidence" (aka video) it would go against them.
We are waiting it out and we are going to get the case dismissed. Our lawyer is quite good. I don't know if I can say type his name, but for anyone who is in Houston or Texas...he even travels outside of Texas for his clients, his name is Robert Fickman and his main office is here in Houston, Texas.
He is GREAT and if you find his website, you should see some of the cases he has gotten dismissed.
He got a case that involved a local Houston rapper (music artist), 3 kilos of cocaine, an informant, and an undercover police officer, dismissed. Don't ask me how, but he did. He even has the article that was in the Houston Chronicle on his wall.
He's a great lawyer. At first I didn't agree with his methods, but it turns out, he knows what he's doing and I'm amazed.
