The team at Evergreen Attorneys are proud to announce that the United States Supreme Court has ruled that the federal government’s prosecution of Mr. Hemani under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(3) violates the Second Amendment in United States v. Hemani. Vague and overly broad laws like 922(g)(3) allow the federal government to arbitrarily impose criminal penalties. Americans like Mr. Hemani deserve to clearly know when their fundamental rights are at risk, and they should not face up to fifteen years in federal prison for keeping a locked firearm in a gun safe at home and occasionally using ma*****na.

Most criminal prosecutions focus on discrete acts: a theft, a fraud, a drug transaction, or an assault. The Colorado Organized Crime Control Act (“COCCA”), however, allows prosecutors to target actions more broadly. Rather than charging isolated offenses, the government uses COCCA to characterize multiple acts as part of an ongoing criminal enterprise, or as “racketeering." This allows them to seek penalties that extend beyond those associated with the underlying crimes.

Anyone facing COCCA allegations should understand not only the underlying criminal charges but also the larger enterprise theory driving the prosecution’s case. If you need a defense lawyer to help you navigate a COCCA or RICO charge, call Evergreen Attorneys at (303) 948-1489 today.

Denaturalization is the legal process by which the United States government revokes a person’s citizenship after the naturalization process.

Unlike deportation proceedings, which apply to non-citizens, denaturalization strips a person of their citizenship entirely, often exposing them to removal from the United States afterward.

Historically, denaturalization has been a relatively rare legal process reserved for uncommon circumstances, usually for those who have committed egregious crimes, like war criminals or terrorists. However, with recent federal policy developments, the government is pursuing these cases much more aggressively.

About one-third of all federal prosecutions in the United States are drug trafficking cases. In the District of Colorado, which includes all 64 counties and every city within the state of Colorado, federal drug trafficking cases make up nearly one third of all federal cases.

Federal drug trafficking cases are different than state-level prosecutions. These cases are often complex, and the penalties can be much more severe.

The team at Evergreen Attorneys was recently selected to lead the amicus briefing at the U.S. Supreme Court in an important criminal case. We will represent the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers in the case Pharms v. United States, No. 25-1086.

The National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers is the premier criminal defense lawyer group in America. Founded in 1958, NACDL has thousands of members across the country and regularly advocates for the criminal defense bar to ensure justice and due process for the accused.

NACDL will sometimes take positions on behalf of cases at the U.S. Supreme Court by filing amicus briefs, which is a “friend of the court” document that is intended to inform the U.S. Supreme Court that the authoring organization has an interest in the resolution of a particular case.
