Resisting without violence, sometimes called obstruction of justice, is any form of resistance to law enforcement that cannot be called violence. The vagueness of this charge allows law enforcement wide discretion to use it in any situation where the defendant is perceived as uncooperative. Unfortunately, this means some officers may use it simply because they can, even when no harm was done. When that's the case, a good Fort Lauderdale resisting without violence criminal defense attorney can help by forcing officers to prove their allegations fully in a court of law.
