Certainly if there is a key disclosure item missing, you could request a stay. Just be aware some people request everything but the kitchen sink in an attempt to overwhelm the Crown. Most JP's will expect you to be able to justify your request, so if the missing items are unreasonable the stay will be denied. What are you still waiting for?

Re: Exceeding the speed limit by 16 to 29 km/h
26 over carries 3 demerit points. Your insurance provider would probably consider it a minor offence, which may have a minimal impact on your rates. Contact your provider as each policy is different.

Re: got a ticket
Its very unlikely the police would notify her parents unless they wanted to confirm your friend had permission to drive the car or they needed to confirm ownership/insurance information.
That being said, the conviction will go on your friends driving record. If her parents are paying for her car insurance, they should be notified since it can ...

Re: My experience with a s.135 POA appeal
Probably the safest way. If you go to trial, the Crown can try and amend the certificate to get rid of the errors.

Re: Parking ticket from "Developer maintained - Unassumed ro
The developer maintained signs are pretty common in new subdivisions until all homes are completed and the City takes over, even though people are living there well before the last home is finished.
I don't believe the fact it's an unassumed road will have any bearing in Court. It's still part of the City and you likely still obtain City services ...

Re: HELP: Accident without Insurance
Getting the vehicle out of impound would typically simply require paying the towing and storage fee. If its not insured, you wouldnt be able to drive it, so you would have to pay to have it towed to your residence.

A statement from the previous owner stating when the vehicle was sold and to whom is sufficient to show ownership, the vehicle does not actually need to be registered to the owner.

I dont know if its good news or not, but its the owner, not the driver who gets charged for a vehicle being operated without insurance. If its your friend/roommate whos the owner (even if its not registered on paper) hell be facing the charge which carries a $5,000 fine. Both you and him can also be charged for using plates which dont belong on the ...

Re: One cop on ground pulls over 2 cars caught by aerial
I'd request disclosure to see what the officer's observations were. I'd disagree with the notion it was a 2 for 1 deal. The officer on the plane could have easily calculated the speed of both you and the other vehicle well before you were actually pulled over.
And I've never heard of a camera being installed on the plane. It's no different then ...

Re: Pedestrian Crossing Violation
Under HTA definitions, the sidewalk would be considered part of the highway, not the roadway. While you certainly can be charged under the HTA for your accident, I don't think you were charged under the correct section. If that's the case, the Crown may withdraw the charge. Hopefully someone else can confirm.

Re: DECEMBER 1 COURT DATE - HELP
You can certainly go to Court and present your version of events and see if it raises enough reasonable doubt. A witness in your car could certainly confirm your version of events, though they'd have a hard time testifying to what your actual speed was.
Just be aware, when you acknowledge you're speeding, Courts tend to accept the officer's speed ...

Re: Improper right turn, 141(2) REAL GOOD ONE
Id suggest getting written statements from your witnesses now, while the incident is fresh in their minds. For Court, youd want to show that your driving was safe, cautious, prudent and appropriate for the weather. I dont believe its an absolute liability offence, so if you can demonstrate the above Id think theres a reasonable prospect of being ...

Re: fail to stop at a red light
All the options are explained on the back of the ticket. You'd most likely want to select option 3 and proceed to trial. Your husband will have to present his version of what happened and then it will be up to the Justice of the Peace to determine if they find him credible.

I don't think there would be anything wrong with asking for additional estimates. Prices will vary from shop to shop.

Re: Car repair legal question!!
Your dilemma has nothing to do with the Highway Traffic Act. Repair shops can put liens on vehicles for which money is owing as per the Repair and Storage Liens Act. Any argument over whether the work was authorized or not would be a civil matter to deal with through the Courts.
