  • Re: HIT POLE- NEED ADVICE ASAP
    First and foremost, ignore her advice to "plea guilty with an explanation" - she had straight out lied to you (not a legal advice, just a warning!). A guilty plea with an explanation is still exactly that - a guilty plea. The best course of acti…

  • Any Police Officer in Ontario can enforce OHTA anywhere in Ontario. TPS cops can enforce on the 400s, and OPP can enforce on the Steeles Ave.

  • Now, I would: 1 - pay the ticket 2 - file the appeal ($150~) 3 - request the transcript ($10~) of lost trial 4 - read... See if there is anything unclear from cop's own testimony. Point them out. Request more disclosure if needed, enlist your witness to …

  • You are not a "motorized vehicle", so no, OHTA doesn't cover it. Is there a sign saying "no pedestrians allowed" or such? Besides, the Beckett drive is too steep, and the 403 would be off-limits for sure.

  • What that woman told the police and wrote on the written statement will have to be cleared up on the summoned date. You DO have access to these documents, it is your Charter right to see the evidence against you. You do not need to have a legal agent go…

  • The easiest way to educate yourself on these matters would be to go to Provincial Offences Court on your off day and see some cases there. You will probably want to cry and laugh at the same time though...

  • Wow, looks like a messed up story. First off, your ex would have to be in court to testify. The fact that he was arrested for obstruction is not helping crown's case against you. What has happened, in detail? Bumper benders are not even required to be r…

  • You can speed when you are being tailgated. Fight the ticket, get the disclosure. On the stand, question the officer if he saw the vehicle behind you. Also, look for the times when the speed measurement unit was tested, and make sure to ask for the manual…

  • Since you have hired a paralegal, seems like you did not want to go to court. I would ask the paralegal to see the disclosure that s/he requests, and maybe talk to him/her about the line of defence s/he is going to use.

  • Respectfully ask for stay before the plea, due to incomplete disclosure. Crown will try to adjourn, let him if you can get him to admit that it is crown's fault. (gives you good 11B arguments)

  • You do not have to prove complete innocence to win a ticket. All you have to do is to raise the reasonable doubt as to officer's testimony. It is the duty of the LEO to show that you have violated the OHTA beyond reasonable doubt. The fact that there see…
