Question 1: What's the best thing to do if the disclosure does not come by the court date?

Question 2: If it comes and I defend myself, can I print reg 615 from the internet and use it in court?

I would think so, any one else????

I think so, too. It's the content of the document that's important, not the document itself in this case.

As for the photographs - I think that should take care of it. If you do not get a favourable ruling at trial, it still leaves the option open for an appeal, particularly with all the evidence you have. You've got proof the sign was not compliant with O.Reg 615. If the JP doesn't see it your way, a Justice hearing the appeal should.

47. Where the characteristics of a highway make it impracticable to place a sign or pavement markings as specified in this Regulation, the sign or pavement markings shall be placed so as to comply as nearly as practicable with those requirements.

hwybear,
Can you please explain what you mean by:

"However, Marco does have a good point in this section, that renders the "60m" guideline not applicable."

Thanks

I went to the court today (Mississauga), and here is what happened:
As stated in my previous post, I did not get any disclosure up to the trial day, and hoped to get a stay. My case was left as the last one. The cop was there. The female prosecutor told me that they do not give stays on first court appearance, I insisted, but the judge (also female) told me that all they can do is give me another date. I did not like the idea of having to take another day off work, so asked for 15 minutes to prepare.
After the female cop testified, I asked her a few questions, and got her to admit that she did not know what reg 615 says about the visibility of stop signs. However, in the meantime the judge noticed that during her testimony the cop did not state the date when she caught me, only the time, and the date of her shift, I think. The judge asked to playback the cop's testimony, while I was listening, a little baffled by the development, and eventually the judge said: "If you were represented by a lawyer or legal representative, he would at this time make a non suit motion". The judge asked to play the testimony again, the prosecutor tried to make an argument that the date was kind of implied or obvious, but the judge asked me if I would like to make a non suit motion, I said "Yes, if I'm allowed to."
She said "Motion allowed, the charge is dismissed".
I think I would have won on my due diligence defense and showing that the sign was not visible from 60 m due to a bend and shrubs and trees, but it was obviously a very nice development. I was also dressed in a white shirt and a tie, and prepared as well as I could.
I hope my experience will help some people with their cases.
