Kelly’s Juvenile Client Granted Stay of Adjudication for Speeding; Racing Reckless Charge Dismissed

Kelly’s client, a senior in high school in Anoka County, was charged with speeding (99 mph in a 55 zone) and street racing following an incident in which he raced a motorcycle from a stoplight. Kelly negotiated an agreement with the prosecutor, subsequently approved by the presiding judge, whereby the racing charge was dismissed and the speeding charge was subject to a stay of adjudication for 180 days, meaning that if Kelly’s client has no new moving violations for that period the charge will be dismissed and the conviction will not be placed on his driving record.
