ESSAY QUESTION I

My client, Dan Dork (D), was charged with violating Penal Code section 456, which provides: “Any person who sells cocaine or assists in the sale of cocaine shall be guilty of a felony.” At trial, police officer Carl Copp (C) testified as follows:

On March 1, I received a tip that a man wearing a red knit cap was selling cocaine at the corner of First and Mission. I went to that location in plain clothes, with a uniformed back-up officer (Officer Bobb) behind me. I saw a man wearing a red knit cap. I asked him if he had any cocaine. He said a bag would cost $20, and I nodded. He handed me a small bag containing what appeared to be cocaine. I held out the $20 and he started to take it. Then he caught sight of Bobb. He dropped the $20 and grabbed the bag out of my hand and started to run. Bobb tried to grab him, but the man pushed Bobb off and ran away. I radioed in a description of him, and another officer arrested Dork at 5 th^ and Mission. He searched Dork, but did not find any cocaine.

Q: Do you see in court the man who showed you the bag of cocaine?

A: I believe it was that man in the grey coat sitting at the defense counsel table, Defendant Dork. He’s dressed differently, so I’m not positive, but I think it was him.

Because Dork has some prior drug offenses, I did not have him testify. Here is a portion of my closing argument to the jury:

Officer Copp failed to positively identify Mr. Dork as the man with the baggie. And the man with the bag did not sell the cocaine, because he took it back before he was paid. So the prosecution has failed to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt.

Because of my sterling performance, the jury returned a verdict of “Not Guilty.”

Prosecutor Sam just filed new charges against Dork, alleging that on March 1, at First and Mission., Dork committed the crimes of possession of cocaine and assaulting a police officer (by shoving Bobb). I filed a motion to dismiss both charges, on the ground of double jeopardy. When Sam received my motion, he offered to drop the charges if I would enter a plea of guilty to one charge of disturbing the peace (a misdemeanor). While this is a pretty good deal, I won’t accept it if I have a good chance of winning the motion to dismiss. Should I enter the plea?
