In court, Hesbrook's attorney argued that because the clients signed contracts, he shouldn't face charges.
Prosecutors said in the past some clients stopped payments when they could no longer get in contact with Hesbrook.
If the judge grants the dismissal, Hesbrook could still face civil penalties, but no jail time.
