Supermodel Jessica White has turned down a plea deal in her assault charge case over a New York City taxi.
The Sport Illustrated swimsuit model appeared in Manhattan Criminal Court on Tuesday where her lawyer said she would fight the misdemeanor assault charge.
White is accused of repeatedly punching another woman in the face over a cab outside the Avenue Lounge in Manhattan last October.
She is also charged with harassment.
The Daily News says the plea deal called for White to perform two days of community service, attend two days of anger management and pay $446 in restitution.
Defense lawyer Mark Heller said White would “be completely exonerated at trial.”
