1. Officer didn't sign his signature in ink on the Summon, because the whole thing was printed Tickets are moving towards the electronic route. A lot of them these days aren't hand written. What you've described is the new norm. They don't sign these by hand anymore. 2. Officer mispelled my name Th...

Btw, arent they suppose to give you all disclosure in one try? Let's say i asked for disclosure in court. The prosecutor is supposed to provide "all " disclosure without missing one piece.

I have seen some judges behave badly, and just one sided the prosecutor. Even with the same reasons given in different court.

Thanks for link.

Good to know the limit when no sign. However for many people or noob driver, they have no clue there is a default limit. I bet they wlill be charged without knowing it. Even if you ignore the whole "ignorance is not a defense" argument, default speed limit is one of the first things you l...

Im not going to trial. Im just trying to learn something using that scenario. I went to court, but dont see any trial much. Maybe went there the wrong time. It would be hard to know which paralegal is good as well.

Yes definitely get your disclosure of the officers notes and then decide what to do. Section 175(11) reads: Duty of drivers when school bus stopped (11) Every driver or street car operator, when meeting on a highway, other than a highway with a median strip, a stopped school bus that has its overhe...

BTW, noone has answered the original question:" Do police get pay when they are going to the court?" It seems they do get paid and happy to sit there.

I guess you been to lots of trial with OPP eh.

So you are saying court date is scheduled without considering your shift? I doubt that is changed.

Good to know the limit when no sign. However for many people or noob driver, they have no clue there is a default limit. I bet they wlill be charged without knowing it. Also when you go to rural area, there are many "highway" or road that are just there to connect few town. It isnt easy to...

Yes our great un-justice system again favors police/prosecutor in the matter of venue. I have driven 5 hours one-way to go to court (and win). Mine is like 4 hours of driving one way. And won the case. I found out the relationship between the police and prosecutor and everyone that are there local ...

Yup, in this ticket police said there is recording, but first disclosure didnt provide it. Of course if argue about it, judge will believe police over others. Will try to send a second disclosure, however dont expect them to send it since first one didnt. First request didnt specificly ask for audio...

How is the result?

Let's say the court for your offence is more than 200km one way away from your home.
Can you ask for the location change to different court near yourself?
