In the last 12 months i have been caught driving with a suspended license three times, and also failure to show proper insurance slip. My next court date is in June. I know my license will be suspended again (I just restainted it, suspension for unpaid fines) I'm just concerned with jail time? Will it really happen? Will I get weekends? Or will it just be 5k plus fine? Anyone been in a similar situation? Any Feed back would be great! Pe

Re: Suspended license times three
You seriously need legal representation. The chances are pretty good that you will go to jail. And get a large fine. Your legal representative may be able to argue weekends if there is justification for it (employment)

Re: Suspended license times three
I have a paralegal on my case. I feel a little in the dark as I'm not attending the cases he is going on my behalf. Can anyone say how much time I will serve? Any other input would be appreciated.

Re: Suspended license times three
What were you suspended for the three times you got charged? Unpaid fine for all three? Have you been convicted for any of them yet?

Re: Suspended license times three
They were all for unpaid fines, not yet I have not been convicted for anything as of yet

Re: Suspended license times three
Here in Ottawa the thrid conviction the prosecutor asks for 45 days and usually gets it. Sorry for the bad news but 3 times in one year is about as bad as it gets in POA court ops
