Prosecution Dropped Before Trial Date

Laura Newton represented an international business, which was facing two prosecutions for Failure to Identify a Driver. The Police said that on a number of occasions, a Notice of Intended Prosecution had been served on the Company requiring the driver to be nominated, and no response had been provided.

We were able to serve evidence of the postal systems within the business to show that either a response had been provided, or that the Notice was never received by the Company. The CPS reviewed the separate cases and agreed to withdraw all offences before the trial date.
