Marin County Superior Court judge has denied a Novato woman's request to have her 2022 fraud-related convictions reduced from felonies to misdemeanors, the Marin County District Attorney's Office said.
The ruling was aligned with recommendations from Marin County District Attorney's Office prosecutors. In August 2020, the District Attorney's Office charged Carmen Hall Soruco, 72, in an 18-count complaint for various felonies, including insurance fraud and filing false tax returns. The charges stemmed from the defendant's failure to properly secure workers' compensation insurance coverage for the employees of her construction company, Soruco Structures.
The law allows a convicted felon to come to court and ask that their charges be reduced to misdemeanors. The court has the discretion to grant or deny the request based upon the underlying facts of the case. Soruco Hall reappeared in court on Oct. 12, and contended that she had been compliant with the terms of her probation, justifying the reductions. In this instance, Judge Beth S. Jordan agreed with prosecutors and ruled that Hall Soruco's behavior did not amount to misdemeanor conduct.
