Re: Fatal Accident

Get a copy of the police report. Review it to verify that it correctly sets out the chain of events.

Call the Dallas County Grand Jury Clerk. They will tell you when the case is set on the Grand Jury calendar.

If you have any concerns at all, (and I still would), retain an attorney to present your case to the grand jury. You have a right to present your evidence. You should also consult with a personal injury attorney.
