Unread post by jennapearl8 »

So I am a subpoenaed witness in a drunk driving case that occurred in Nov.2017. I now live more than 300 km from the court where the case is being heard. I was supposed to appear on Feb. 25 2019 but flipped my car on my way there. It being a single vehicle accident 100% fault was assigned to me. 1. Can I get fault reduced because I was worried about having a warrant out for my arrest? 2. Does the court have to provide a way for me to get there based on my distance from the court?

question 1,-No question 2: they may have a policy for reimbursement of costs or hotel depending on distance. Ask the crown
