We've had some history with the police in my town..

We have a steady police presence of 5 - 10 officers in the town at any given time.
Long story short I exercised my right to not talk to the police (I watch them beat the *EDIT* outta my brother and a…
Just wondering what you guys think of those HOV lanes.
Sure these lanes are faster then usual but i think they present a ton of problems, now the first thing i want to clear up is often we say speed is dangerous. Okay i can believe that depending on the context and situation its used in. But i think…
I heard somewhere that flashing your lights (i.e. clicking your high beams on and off) to warm drivers in the opposite direction of a speed trap is a violation of the highway traffic act.
Is this true ?
I was watching motoring 200X and they spoke about this, and accorinding to them, it is NOT illegal…
Mid July 2012 I was hit at 6pm by a drunk driver. That's when my hubby decided to tell me that he didn't take care of the insurance as he was supposed to. So, I got charged with driving without insurance. Car is in my name.
Inuries were minor - all of us had aches/pains, hubby had seatbelt burn…

Just wondering what this incident means...........
My wife got caught not making a full stop - no contest.
However, also got a "ticket" for failure to surrender card - but she did but it was expired.
She found the good card after that mistake and gave it to the officer.
However she still got a "ticket"…
I got a speeding ticket doing 75 in a 50 zone. There where vehicles all around my vehicle doing about the same speed. The road was 2 lanes in one direction and 2 lanes in the other direction. There was a vehicle beside mine, another behind that vehicle and a vehicle behind me, all moving above the…
Hi all,
Unfortunately I got a "Disobey Sign" ticket tonight in this weather for turning left at a no left turn intersection (Greenwood turning left onto O'Connor) and my question is if it is possible to fight this ticket successfully due to a variety of reasons.
First of all, since visibility was…
Could you please advise how to file for an appeal from Ottawa?
Good day everybody.
I have a question. I would like to file an appeal due to violation of provincial offence act by J and Prosecutor.
This website does not really explain how to do so.

I am in Ottawa the appeal court is in To. How do I file an appeal?
Are there instructions on the Notice of Appeal?
Thanks,
Ostrmm.
Re: Could you please advise how to file for an appeal from Ottawa?
The appeal court for a provincial office wouldn't be in Toronto for a trial heard in Ottawa. Go back to the court where the trial took place and ask for a Notice of Appeal. You only have 30 days from the trial decision to file an appeal.
Also read the document that you've linked, it will give you an idea if you even have grounds to appeal.
Re: Could you please advise how to file for an appeal from Ottawa?
As Decatur said.
You can go to court where the trial took place and they'll give you a simple form to fill out. If I remember correctly, it's just a sheet asking for your general information and a section asking your reasoning for filing an appeal. There might also be something about transcripts and a small down payment.
They'll send you off to the nearest court, papers in hand, where your appeal will be heard and you'll finish filing there.
You'll need to pay off your fine first before you can appeal and then you'll wait on your transcripts. This process will take several months. You'll then pick up your transcripts from the court where the trial was originally heard and pay your outstanding balance. The cost will depend on how long the transcripts are, but i'd be prepared to pay at least $100.
Re: Could you please advise how to file for an appeal from Ottawa?
Thanks, Decature and Bend.
I was pissed that my rights, provincial offence act were blatantly violated. This is the reason I would like an appeal
The J did not know the Act when I refer to it, he would node towards the Prosecutor and ask : is this so? or something like that.
Neither of them new what is the "date when the proceedings was commenced". As result they told me it happened 40 days after the alleged violation. I filed request for trial 50 days after the violation. etc etc etc. It all should be on the transcript.
