speed can be ammended up.... here is the post under "courts" as a "sticky"
http://www.ontariohighwaytrafficact.com/topic1393.html
I read that sticky, but I'm trying to determine if it is valid for my situation since there are no written notes of the "original" speed. Is it normal for an officer to remember a single uneventful stop from 6 months ...

Re: Rec'd Disclosure - Do I have a Case? Looking for advice.
Um, the officer kinda mentioned something like that at the stop. :wink:
But I could be wrong because I was so nervous, so I was hoping his notes would refresh my memory.
But if not in his notes then theoretically any cop can increase any speeding fine by saying "actually he was doing X over".
In the span of 99 minutes he issued 12 tickets - all ...

Re: What if I don't show up for court... baby due within days?
Thanks for the advice.
This is what I plan to do, please tell me if it makes sense.
Show up before my court date and talk to them to see if I can get it thrown out on technicalities. I was told I can show up any day (M-F) at 9am - no appointment or anything else needed. If they throw it out, great. If they don't, or they try to reduce it, I will ...

Re: What if I don't show up for court... baby due within days?
My understanding (which is very limited) is to request an adjournment I have to go in person to make a date, then return on that date to get the adjournment.
So basically 2 days off work just to do this.
Does this sound right or is there an easer way?
What is involved to re-open a case?
Thanks.

What if I don't show up for court... baby due within days?
Court date is April 6. My wife is due April 2.
If I miss my court date because of this what should I do as soon as I get out?

Re: Rec'd Disclosure - Do I have a Case? Looking for advice.
I read the case law - thanks for the info.
It mentions that the "evidence indicates" that the officer told the driver his speed. In my case I don't see any evidence of this.
Also, Wanamaker was offered the chance to enter a plea before they enter the amendment - I may take this if they offer it, but I won't volunteer it as I can't see how the ...

Re: Rec'd Disclosure - Do I have a Case? Looking for advice.
My record is clean - for 15 years.
I don't see anywhere in the notes mention of 94km/h... can the officer just bring it up from memory?
I honestly don't believe I was doing over 75 (I thought it was a 70 zone).

Rec'd Disclosure - Do I have a Case? Looking for advice.
Fined for speeding - 89 in a 60.
Court date is April 6.
Any advice on the following:
1) Discovery info includes 3 pages of Genesis radar manual. Officer's notes show he used "Atlantic Laser" to measure speed. Didn't show model # (only s/n). The Genesis was used earlier on in the day, but not for my case. Can I grill him on this or is it simply a ...
