Default Removed and Warrant Vacated on Reckless Operation Charge and Case Dismissed Prior to Arraignment

The defendant is an aeronautical engineer. Two years ago he was driving his car erratically on a busy street. He approached a construction site and was signaled to slow down by a police officer working the construction site detail. Rather than slow down the man defiantly gave the middle finger to the police officer. He was tracked down by other officers in that department and cited for reckless operation of a motor vehicle in violation of G.L. c. 90 section 24. The defendant missed his arraignment and left the jurisdiction. A few weeks ago he came back to Massachusetts. Remembering that he was in default and that a warrant had been issued he contacted our office and retained Attorney Stephen Neyman. Today, we removed the default and had the warrant recalled. The district attorney’s office agreed to dismiss all charges upon payment of court costs, prior to arraignment. The case is now dismissed.
