You were arrested by L Hinnant in Fairfax County, and your case is more likely to be dismissed than cases statewide. Hinnant has a 42.5% dismissal rate across 146 cases, which is 7.8 percentage points higher than Virginia's average of 34.7%. This puts Hinnant in the 62nd percentile among officers statewide, meaning dismissals happen somewhat more often in his arrests than most. You have a 57.5% chance of conviction, but nearly four in ten cases get dismissed entirely—a meaningful possibility worth understanding as your case develops.

The vast majority of Hinnant's arrests—140 of 146—fall under "Other" charges, and those cases mirror his overall pattern with a 40.9% dismissal rate. Without knowing your specific charge, you can expect a similar dismissal likelihood if you fall into this common category. Fairfax County's independent jurisdiction means your case follows local court procedures separate from surrounding areas, which affects how your arrest is processed and resolved.
