• Rescheduled Early Resolution Meeting - 30 Days
  The re-opening and appeal remedies are there to address such 'hard" deadlines. Nothing is preventing you from trying your arguments except time and money. So, I say, go for it---maybe you'll end up changing things. Someone's gotta be the...

• Handicap Parking Ticket With A Valid Handicap Permit
  If the disability parking sign is non-existent or not per the regulation's standards, then the prosecution can't prove its case because that is an essential element they have to prove. However, failing to see the sign is not a defence nor is any error in judgement by the defendant. That would only be accepted (and evaluated in a strict liability offence). Other than challenging the...

• Parking Fines - Can't Renew Sticker Until Paid
  So during the last year I have racked quite a bit of parking tickets near where I work here in Hamilton, approx $2k. Yes, my fault and own laziness.

• Person Has 2 Tickets, 1 Speeding, 1 Not Stopping At A Stop Sign
  Its the insurance litigators that you have to worry about! A lot of the insurance company employees play nonchalant about a lot of things until the lawsuits start---then their positions seriously change. That's why its always important to deal with them in writing. Numerous cases have gone to the Court of Appeal and even to the SCC dealing with insurers obligation to pay, obligation to...

• Section 7(1)(a) - Drive Motor Vehicle, No Permit
  It really goes to how much time you are willing to invest on this on the very limited probability of success. Most people would just pay the ticket and move on. Here's why: First, there is virtually no chance a prosecutor is going to give you any deal on the permit charge----you already got super lucky on the speed warning. Second, this is a super easy charge for them to...
