The sergent said he "had to charge me with something" and gave me a ticket for failing to slow down and leave room for an emergency vehicle.

It would be helpful if you posted the section number under which you were charged.

Probably is s. 159 (2), formerly 159.1 (1)

Slow down on approaching stopped emergency vehicle

159. (2) Upon ...

Hi Bear :

Kudos to you! Not everyone knows this stuff.

Under 199 (3) of the HTA, a police officer has to forward an MVC report to the Registrar. How do you do that? By what means?

HTA OREG 339/94
5. (1) If a person convicted of an offence set out in Column 1 of the Table appeals the conviction and notice of the appeal is served on the ...

No doubt that some people within the Crown Prosecutor's office (and possibly the Ministry of the Attorney General) had a cow when the JP ruled in mdevo's favour...

I agree.

In this case it would be the city prosecutor bringing the appeal, under the Transfer Agreement , and not the Crown.

However, you would not believe the amount of ...

I answered that I wanted to go to trial, thinking that I'll ask for an adjournment, and she gives me a surprised look, and in a surprised voice, asks,

"You want to go to trial without disclosure?? Or do you want to ask for another date?" This is the first question I have -- if I'd suspected that the officer was absent, what should I have ...

As a qualified licensed paralegal with a background in hit and run accidents, I would have approached this case with my client in an entirely different manner to win it.

You see, you stated that you would have approached this case with your client in an entirely different manner to win it.

But then you do not tell us what is that ...

... Hey Radar, don't bother. Thanks anyway.

You know, this is one of the reasons paralegals were regulated. Too many of them just f....g around. You would have thought that now paralegals are real professionals who follow an strict code of ethics.

Every single post you've made today basically says "you need to hire a paralegal, you need ...

Hey Radar :

Without getting into too many details, it seemed to me that Biron was trying to poll the group for interest's sake rather than to
seek advice... but I could be wrong.

I started this topic on June 2, 2010. The case was dealt with on November 05, 2009.

And I started this topic exactly for the reasons you stated.

Incidentally ...

........................ Are you serious?
........................ You didn't read the entire thread, did you?



You are representing a "Client" and your asking for advice on a forum????

Doesn't sound to me that you should be representing anyone. Are you a licensed paralegal? You have to be licensed by the Law Society of Upper Canada to ...

If I remember correctly (have not used the above device in 9yrs, currently only use Laser Atlanta), the testing for that unit mentioned above is:
- display integrity test (ensures all LED digits are functioning)
- scope alignment test (horizontal and vertical tests to ensure aiming device is accurate)
- fixed distance test
there also might be a ...

Hi Bear :

The normal tests are the direction test, which is performed by aiming to a vertical object, a light pole for instance, and moving the aim from side to side at which time the device should report the distance differences.

The second test is to aim the device to an object at a known distance and verify that the device reports that ...

alright so i got my disclosure and i noticed an error in it. The police statements say they observed a silver van motor vehicle at a very high rate of speed. However i was driving a green vehicle its green and always has been green. The vehicle registration even says my vehicle is green.

Will this help me at all?

It should help to raise a ...

...Like I said, it's a weak charge and it could most likely be beat in court (and I hope that it is being fought) but I don't necessarily fault the officer for laying the ticket. That's the point I was trying to get across in my earlier statements.

I still think the charges should have not been made. Notwithstanding, I think you make a ...
