The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputy whose patrol car fatally struck cyclist and entertainment attorney Milton Everett Olin Jr. in Calabasas nearly a month ago has transferred to the department’s court services division, a spokesman said Monday.

Deputy Andrew Wood, a 16-year veteran who had taken personal time off since the Dec. 8 accident, was assigned Sunday to performing administrative duties in court services, department spokesman Steve Whitmore said.

Wood, whose first day in his new post was Monday, had submitted his request to transfer to court services about a year ago because “he had wanted a change,” Whitmore said.

The officer is still a sheriff’s deputy, but “he’s got a new assignment,” Whitmore said. “It happens all the time. With the timing, it could be that it had something to do with the accident, but I don’t know. All I know is that he put the request in a while ago, (and) it’s now been granted.”

Meanwhile, the department’s Traffic Services Detail, the entity that investigates all deputy-involved collisions, has not yet concluded its probe into the crash that killed the 65-year-old Woodland Hills resident. “The investigation is still ongoing,” Whitmore said. “It’s status quo.”

The lead investigator on the case, Sgt. Joseph Jakl, was not in the office Monday and did not respond to email requests.

Olin, a former executive of the online music store Napster, was riding his bicycle in the 22400 block of Mulholland Highway when, for unknown reasons, he was struck inside the bicycle lane by the deputy’s patrol car, authorities said. The founding partner of the Encino-based Altschul & Olin LLP reportedly landed on the windshield and shattered the glass before rolling off the patrol car.

He was pronounced dead at the scene, and Wood sustained minor injuries.

Olin’s wife, Louise Olin, declined specific comment on the deputy’s transfer but noted the family is still “struggling to grasp it all.

“We do like the ghost bike being up there,” she said, referring to a memorial bike chained to a sign near the scene of the collision. “We hope it stays. We think it’s a powerful statement.”

A Dec. 21 memorial held at the former A&M Records lot, where Olin once served as chief operating officer and senior vice president of business and legal affairs, drew more than 500 people and some 30 speakers, his wife said. Olin, who is survived by two grown sons, once served as the chief operating officer of the original Napster.
