I generally agree with the other attorney.
Also, if you are not happy with the legal services you are currently receiving, it may be time to hire a different attorney.

He should retain a criminal defense attorney. The prosecutor has to meet the burden of the charge or the charge should be dismissed. If the prosecutor believes the prosecution can meet the burden with the evidence they have, then you may need to take the case to trial to let the Court decide.
