LEAVING THE SCENE OF AN ACCIDENT WITH INJURIES (F.S. 316.027(2a))
REDUCED SENTENCE
Escambia County, FL
January 14, 2026
Client faced Leaving the Scene of an Accident with Serious Bodily Injury (a second-degree felony) with a statutory maximum of up to 15 years in prison and up to a $10,000 fine. The prosecutor would not accept less than 24 months state prison, but we refused and prepared the case through jury selection for trial.
Attorney Brad Rowe negotiated a resolution that avoided state prison, and after a contested sentencing hearing the client received 6 months in jail plus probation. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes; each case depends on its facts and circumstances.
