A 46-year-old Lyman man charged in two felony cases in Scotts Bluff County has struck a plea deal to avoid standing trial.
In one case, Jose Gomez was charged with a “Sex Offender Violation of Failure to Verify Every 3 Months- 2nd Offense.” In another case, he was charged with 1st Degree Domestic Assault causing serious bodily injury.
Last week in District Court, Gomez pleaded no contest to the sex offender registry violation and in exchange for the plea, the other case was dismissed.
He faces a maximum of 20 years in prison when he’s back in court for sentencing on December 3rd with Judge Leo Dobrovolny.
