A taxi driver charged over the death of father-of-four Daniel Kopa has appeared in court.
Daljinder Singh, 25, is accused of careless driving causing the death of the 34-year-old.
Mr Singh, from Mt Roskill, appeared briefly before a registrar today and is due back in court in April.
Daniel Kopa was hit by a car on a busy Hobson Street in Auckland's CBD in June. He died in hospital two days later.
Mr Kopa was a father to four girls, aged from 8 months to five years at the time he died.
A GiveaLittle page set up to support his wife Calli Cleland and their daughters has so far raised more than $135,000.
The donated money will help the family remain in their home.
