Re: 51 over, speed measured via aircraft

Thank you very much for the information.

Do you know if Disclosure should include information from both the officer on the ground and the officer in the plane? Would both be required to attend at Court?

Thank you again!

INCORRECT total payable w/ CORRECT set fine-9.1 conviction

I have an appeal for a client whose offence notice has a correct set fine but an incorrect total payable. The matter proceeded under s. 9.1 and a conviction was registered. I have done much research and it seems that the more recent case law (R v Gandhi [2011] O.J. No. 2642) states that as long as t...

What happens to demerit points while matter is under appeal?

Can anyone tell me what happens with the driver's abstract while the matter is under appeal? (The fine has been paid and the appeal has been filed.)

Would the appeal be noted on the driver's abstract? Will demerit points apply?

Thank you very much.

Probation/community service for speeding 50+ over

The original charge was speeding 60 over and stunt. Stunt will be tossed and a plea to 60 over, plus fine, 6 months probation and 30 hours community service.

Thank you.

If I receive a seatbelt ticket in a commercial vehicle and no CVOR number is indicated on the ticket, is that error fatal?

I requested it on Friday, and got a letter from the Crown today saying I could go there and see it. Of course, "there" is five hours away, so I would be seeing it just prior to Trial. I really need to know about the before stop testing, and whether the Court would allow the officer's notes...

That is my question Neo...would the notes be allowed? Unfortunately I am short on time as the Trial is Thursday. If the notes would be allowed, I may try to amend it down. If not, I would ask the Crown to withdraw. Just trying to decide which way to go.

Thank you all for your help.

I have reviewed the officers notes and find nothing to indicate it was tested before the stop. The notes do indicate a test afterward, but not before. I suppose it is possible the officer simply forgot to include the start of shift test information. I have requested the manual. Does anyone know off ...
