The Defendant’s wife worked for a company for a period of 2 years. The Defendant owned his own landscaping maintenance service. During that period of time the Defendant’s wife worked for the victim, she directly wired over $450,00.00 worth of money from the company she worked for to creditors of the Defendant’s and the Defendant’s wife and family members. These monies were used to pay credit card bills, mortgage payments, car payments, tuition for the Defendant’s daughter and numerous other family bills. Through discovery, the Firm discovered that none of the monies were moved into either the personal account of the Defendant or the Defendant’s business bank operating account. Additionally, the Firm took the Deposition of the Officer as well as the accountant who discovered the wrongdoing on the part of the wife. After listing the Defendant’s wife as a witness, the State of Florida set her down for a sworn statement. On the day of the Calendar Call (a week before the trial), the State of Florida announced that they would be dropping the charges against the Defendant because they were not able to prove the allegations against him. All charges were dropped against the Defendant.
