Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Well, my case went back to trial yesterday after 2 adjournments by the crown (Oct to feb, then Feb to march).
It got adjourned again yesterday to end of May. I hired a Traffic Ticket Rep this time (I couldnt attend) and Prosecution refused to accept/ad…
Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Excellent, thank you
I just got a notice in the mail that one officer cant make the re-scheduled date so Prosecutor is making a motion to get trial pushed out again, likely to spring 2016. I guess the further its pushed the more likely I am to be able …
Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Thanks
one question, the LIDAR officer's notes only referenced a test before the ticket was issued (with no time listed), and there was no evidence/notes disclosed as to if/when the unit was tested after the ticket was issued.
if he has it in his not…
Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Never got to my case, got bumped to February.
Prosecution tried twice to get me to resolve with lesser charge, which I respectfully declined. I did offer to plead "not guilty" and she could not present any evidence...."Not gonna happen…
Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Thanks jsherk, I appreciate you answering my onslaught of questions as I get close here. the other thing that im conscious of is how I ask my questions without giving evidence myself. I know i can ask leading questions, but not sure where i cross the …
Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Im typing up my Trial questions etc. Can you confirm that i get to say a closing argument or closing remarks to summarize my points and link all the areas of reasonable doubt ? I would think i do.

I have another question regarding point 1) if not in his notes at all, its not considered proof if he just testifies to such during the …
Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Thank you, so if its not in the notes then its one of 2 possible outcomes
1) if not in his notes at all, its not considered proof if he just testifies to such during the trial, ie independent recollection isnt proof ?
2) if its in his notes, but on la…
Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Do I have a case to determine if the LIDAR officer never confirmed that the Trk he clocked was the Truck Cst Green pulled over ? doesnt there have to be some sort of affirmation from one officer to the other ?

Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over Jsherk, regarding the fact that what is in his notes are not 100% accurate :
Constables notes say I didnt dispute the speed, which i guess is technically true, but he did say to me "from the look on your face you seem surprised at 28 over" whic…
Re: Options in my Trial for 28km/h over From googling Cosine, it would appear that the actual speed of the vehicle is faster than what appears on the LIDAR, so that would not be an argument in my favor.
