Leaving the scene of accident with bicycle dismissed in Manhattan
2020
Our client was driving when our client allegedly hit a bicyclist that was
riding along side our client and traveling in the same direction. Our
client kept driving but was later identified due to a photo that was taken
showing our client’s license plate. Our client was questioned by
the police and gave a
confession and afterwards
reached out to us for help. When we met for a consultation in the office, we discussed the
accident, the charges, and what it might take to get it worked out with no
jail and no criminal record. After a few months of litigation, we noticed that
the Manhattan prosecutor made a few mistakes that rose to the level of
grounds for dismissal. After moving for a dismissal, the case was dismissed
and sealed.
