I Swerved to Opposite Lane to avoid a child - NYC Summons Issued....

So it was 9:20pm last night and I was traveling on a 2 lane street with only one car in front of me. This young boy (9-12yrs old) jay walks on his scooter. The car in front of me immediately stops short of the kid on the scooter. My immediate reaction was to swerve around the car because if not - i would have rear ended him and quite possibly forcing him to hit the child (who was deer in headlights). As I swerve to the opposite lane (there were no cars), i swerved back in front of the car and immediately was pulled over. The cop car was about 75ft in front of this whole incident. I was issued a summons even though I explained it. Now, I have to take off work to defend myself. If anyone has any good advice, it would be greatly appreciated!
