Hi, I attended court last week for my trial date. When I arrived, the prosecutor moved my date to later this coming summer. This new trial date will take place over 1 year from the initial incident. Here are my questions: 1) What is the time limit you need to reach for file an 11B? I've read some places anything over 8-10 months...some places say 11months. Is there a regulation or specific case law that gives a range? Is 1 year valid for 11B? 2) When should I file the 11B? If I just had my trial date recently, should I file the 11B right away (like, in April) or should I wait until about a month before the trial date later this summer? I'm concerned that if I file the 11B NOW, that they might try to move up the trial date and I'd lose my 11B status. On the other hand, if I don't have any communication until I send an 11B a few months from now, does that make me look bad...as if I am not actively trying to get a speedy trial? I asked for an earlier date already in court, but they said the date they gave me is the earliest. Do I need a transcript to verify I said this in court? Note: I've already filed for a STAY before my first trial date due to no disclosure (not because of 11b). Do I need to follow up on this disclosure Stay application again also? Since filing, I did receive disclosure.

The remedy for 'non-disclosure' is simple, you get disclosure. It appears the crown has satisfied their disclosure obligations? What was the reason your recent trial date was adjourned? You have to give us a timeline of events. Date you received ticket Date you filed for trial Date you received 'notice of trial' Date you requested disclosure Trial Date New Trial Date You should read R. ex rel City of Toronto v. Andrade, 2011 ONCJ 470 (CanLII) in full to better understand how the 11b time calculations are done.

Your delay can definitely get you a stay, just follow the guidelines in this thread: http://www.ontariohighwaytrafficact.com/topic2952.html File the 11b app ~20-30 days before your trial date.
I just received a parking ticket for parking outside of the space, to me that is crazy because I was parked in the corner of the lot, was not blocking anyone or a through way, so I thought there is no harm. I've seen people park there all day and not get a ticket.
Hello, i like many others a bad habit of attracting unwanted attention, and tickets. i drove a dark Eagle Talon that my girlfriend used to call a Bat-mobile. im also under 25 years old. well i drive for a living, and i want to do whatever i can to keep my abstract clean. so i sold the car, and im…
I was hoping to receive some advice on the unfortunate situation that I currently find myself in.
Last night, at 7pm, I was at an intersection waiting for the oncoming traffic to clear so that I could turn left. I thought that I was waiting at the intersection behind only one other vehicle (a van)…
So i received my first speeding ticket...officer claimed I was doing 73 km/hr in a 50 zone. He did reduce it to 63 - should fight it? The ticket did not mention a cross road. Its just states N.B on Caledonia. I don't believe d points are affected but I'm worried about insurance.
Exactly a week ago today, I was caught going 135 in an 80, on Highway 3 near Windsor, Ontario. I know this is just completely idiotic and there hasn't been a minute since I was charged that I haven't been smacking myself for this. I'm very, very remorseful and just overall torn about…
I was making a left turn, didn't have headlights on and was putting on my seatbelt at a time. Really stupid thing to do, was very stressed out and just feel dumb about it. What am I facing, and what impact will it have on my insurance? On ticket it just says Careless driving, there are no details..
Late Saturday afternoon, December 1st, I entered the Shops at Don Mills with my vehicle and drove due East as I needed to make a quick deposit in the TD Bank. I made a left hand turn onto the side street and on the right side where I parked, there is a condo under construction with all the usual…
Hi, I just received a notice in the mail with pictures of my car going through a red light. Ticket is in my husband's name, as he is the car owner, but I drive this car. I'm guilty as can be... can't remember doing it, but apparently went right through intersection after light turned red. I…
