Three charges against a prominent New Brunswick lawyer have been dropped after he completed the alternative measures program.
Christian Michaud was charged Feb. 21 with public nudity in Ammon on Sept. 22, 2019, causing a disturbance on the same day, and committing mischief by making an RCMP Ford Explorer inoperative.
The charges were withdrawn Friday by provincial court Judge Luc Labonté after he was told by a Crown prosecutor that Michaud had successfully completed the alternative measures program.
