David Helps Client Avoid Jail Time After Manslaughter Charges Filed

In P. v. B.S., the defendant, a commercial truck driver, swerved off a major freeway, striking a parked vehicle and killing its owner who was standing in front of the car.  The truck driver, who had prior felony conviction for a violent strike offense, was charged with misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter.  In exchange for the defendant’s consent to a two-year suspension of his commercial driving privileges, Attorney Dudley was able to secure a no contest plea to the charge with NO JAIL TIME imposed.
