Quote by: Chaossaber314  I know a woman through my mom who plead guilty to the charge of manslaughter in an accident that was her fault. I will grant you that she was more broken up by the fact that she killed someone than by her punishment by the state. Nevertheless, the legal interpretation is pretty straight forward. |
If there is no criminal negligence, it becomes a civil case. Cite precedent and I'll bite. I'd be intrigued to hear more DETAIL about the case you cited. I know if her license was suspended, she didn't have a license, was speeding or some other extenuating circumstance was applicable then she can be charged with a criminal violation. Otherwise its a civil matter.
