Charges of Indecent Assault and Battery Against Delivery Worker Continued Without a Finding and to be Dismissed

Our client delivers large items such as appliances for many companies. In July of 2021 he made a delivery to a woman who lived alone. The two struck up a conversation. Our client eventually asked her for a hug. She complied with his request. However, he took matters further, touching her buttocks and breasts over her objection. The woman froze and only after the defendant left was she able to call the police. Our client was arrested and charged with indecent assault and battery in violation of G.L. c. 265 section 13H. That crime is a felony in Massachusetts. If he were to be convicted of this offense he would have had to register as a sex offender. Today, we succeeded in getting this continued without a finding (CWOF). After he completes his probation this charge will be dismissed. He will not have a felony conviction and he will not have to register as a sex offender.
