Jessica White Headed to Trial


Remember when model Jessica White got arrested in New York for kicking some girl's ass over a taxi cab [click here if you missed that]? Yeah well, Jess refused her plea deal so she's headed to trial in June...

From NY Daily News
Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Jessica White rejected a plea deal Tuesday and will go to trial for a nightclub catfight last year.

Manhattan prosecutors had offered the sultry stunner just two days community service, two days anger management counseling and a $490 fine if she would plead guilty to misdemeanor assault.

But the catwalk charmer - who appeared in court in a black mini-skirt, belted black wrap top and sky-high silver snake-skin heels - respectfully declined.

"At this point, there is no interest in that offer," White's lawyer, David Smith, told the judge.

That prompted the judge to set a June 15 trial date.
White, 26, was busted Oct. 23, 2010 after allegedly pummeling another woman outside Chelsea's Avenue Lounge in a fight over a cab.

The swimsuit knockout was reportedly out celebrating her break-up from actor Sean Penn. The two are no longer an item.
