- People v Sibri-Arevalo89 Misc 3d 908
The court denied the defendant’s motion to dismiss charges in the interests of justice under CPL 170.40, finding that the potential loss of DACA status did not constitute a compelling reason warranting dismissal. The court determined that the case did not cry out for fundamental justice beyond conventional considerations, particularly given the seriousness of drunk driving offenses.
