Hey guys so I sent a disclosure request and didn't receive it. I requested for typed notes if they are not legible, the prosecutor couldn't read the notes so I asked them why did they ignore my disclosure request. Than the prosecutor told me that officer will clarify the notes for me, they both insisted. I then walked outside of courtroom and he started translating the disclosure, I told him word by word, as I typed my notes. Than I went to trial and the judge asked if I have all the notes which I was stupid and answered Yes, then they picked another date. He lied and did not give me full disclosure because when I count the number of words it is not the same. Also there are two key words in the disclosure which I can clearly read and they are not in my disclosure. I know that he lied but I have no way to prove. I also asked him to sign the notes and he said he won't sign them. Now it's the next day so if I get this stamped in court will this change anything? Thank you for any input.

Well you still have a copy of the officer original notes right? So you can question him on cross examination about the things in his notes. You can also say at your next trial something like "I am prepared to proceed today, although I just need a quick clarification from the officer on a couple words/sentences that were in his notes before I proceed." This should give you a few more minutes with the officer to clarify whatever you are uncertain of.

To clarify, a discrepancy in the word count in your typed version of the notes versus the officer's originals does not mean you caught them in a lie. Like translating from one language to another, when you change short forms and abbreviations into proper English, the word count will fluctuate. As jsherk said, if you think the officer left out something from their notes, you can clarify with them at your next Court date.

And honestly what's to say that you didn't make a mistake typing out what the officer said to you? What are the discrepancies by the way? Are they material to your defense?

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.

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…
