CEGA Law Group Triumphs with Dismissal of Calvin Ford Case!

CEGA Law Group accomplished another landmark victory, demonstrating its professional prowess and fortitude with the successful case dismissal of Calvin Ford, the head trainer of lightweight champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis. Facing two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, the charges were detrimental to Ford’s career and reputation as a trainer and his integrity and reliability as a person. However, justice has again been served via CEGA Law Group, proving that a skillful defense and confidence are crucial.

The Case Against Calvin Ford

Calvin Ford is a high-profile boxing trainer who has trained some of the most notable contenders in boxing history. However, he was charged with two counts of assault with a deadly weapon following an incident in February 2023. Las Vegas police claimed Ford had hired two men to drive his Cadillac Escalade from Baltimore to Vegas. When the men arrived with the car, Ford allegedly said it was scratched, bringing the price down from $2000 to $500 for their services. The trio argued back and forth for several minutes, and the men claimed that Ford lifted his shirt to reveal a handgun, told them to leave, threatened their lives, and then left. The men made a call to the police shortly after that.

The altercation was recorded on a surveillance camera without audio, and no gun was revealed in the video, but it was obvious that the three were in a heated debate. An arrest warrant was issued in September 2023, and police arrested Ford in December 2023. After being extradited to Las Vegas, Calvin Ford called on CEGA Law Group, making the right choice in helping and ultimately getting a dismissal for his case. Initially, Ford was devastated that someone would make accusations, jeopardizing his career and life over a few hundred dollars. However, after speaking with CEGA Law Group, Ford was more confident that the defense team could easily handle prosecution claims.

Defense Strategies: Video Evidenceand Contradicting Allegations

Calvin Ford’s case gained significant press, and the world was watching. Led by CEGA Law Group, the defense team led a well-researched defense, citing that the video evidence contradicted allegations made against Ford. The accusers claimed there was a gun, and video evidence showed no weapon whatsoever. It showed a brief dispute before Ford got into his vehicle and drove away. The footage was clear and compelling, challenging the prosecution’s version of what happened.

The jury was shadowed with doubt, giving CEGA Law Group the additional opportunity to highlight inconsistencies in the original story. With no willing witnesses and a lack of evidence, there was nothing for the judge to do but dismiss the case.

A Resounding Victory!

Calvin Ford was cleared with the expertise, experience, and determination of the CEGA Law Group defense team. The dismissal restored the trainer’s professional reputation and reliability, reinforcing the integrity Ford built from the ground up throughout his career.
