Royals pitcher Danny Duffy, who was cited for driving under the influence of alcohol in August, received a continuance in his case Friday morning in Overland Park Municipal Court.
Steve Sakoulas, an attorney representing Duffy, told The Star that he was “continuing negotiations.” Duffy, who entered a not guilty plea through his attorney in October, did not appear in court Friday.
Duffy’s next court appearance is scheduled for Jan. 19. He was cited around 8 p.m. Aug. 27 in the drive-thru lane of a Burger King restaurant after employees called police because they saw a vehicle stopped short of the window with a man inside slumped over the console between the driver’s and passenger’s seats.
