You can also call the Crown Prosecutor's office in advance of the day of trial and offer to plea bargain. But yes, if you aren't going to plea-bargain on the day of trial, then you'd have to go to the Prosecutor's office to make the deal a couple of days (or weeks) before your trial date. It's one way of doing it.

Ok, i'm just waiting on my trial date to come in the mail so I can request disclosure. Depending on what's in the officer's notes I may fight it or go to the crown prosecutor's office to arrange a plea-bargain. I'll keep everyone filled in on my progress.

The plea bargain usually takes place 15 mins before the JP enters the court room and during the break.
In many cases the Crown will offer a lower charge, if the Crown does not you can initiate the plea bargain. Don't forget to check for the cop's presence before taking the Crown's offer.

our court has a mandatory sign in sheet for defendants/paralegals/witnesses and officers. This helps speed our court up, not wasting time calling on persons on the docket who are no where to be found.
