A man charged over a pursuit, that sparked the death of a Hunter police officer, may be released on bail on Friday.
Sergeant Geoffrey Richardson died when his patrol car crashed at Allandale on March 5, while responding to the chase.
Today Paul Robert Johnson faced Maitland Court, accused of driving dangerously while disqualified.
The magistrate will consider an application for bail on Friday, while the case itself has been adjourned until November 29.
