Re: Looking for advice on stunt driving first court appearan
he "has" 2 speeding convictions. did you not read that bit ? He also didn't mention that in his opening, although he did say "I do terribly regret everything and have no intentions of speeding. " :shock: So 3 in total; that makes him a serial speeder. Am I missing something? Yes...

Re: Looking for advice on stunt driving first court appearan
Bobajob is incorrect... From what I concluded through the vast amount of research I did when I had the same charge, the stunt charge almost always gets reduced to 49 over providing you had a clean record before the charge and you're about 50-55 over the limit. This is obviously not a guarantee nor l...

Re: Charged with 172(1) -- Seeking advice
Bump. Going back tomorrow to plead guilty... is it too late to delay this and try and talk to the prosecutor for 3 points?

Re: Charged with 172(1) -- Seeking advice
I am happy to report that the meeting with the Prosecutor went very well and my charge was reduced to 49 over. It stills suck, a lot, but it's a whole hell lot better than the stunt driving conviction and all the baggage that comes with it. At the meeting, I was super remorseful and honest, and the ...

Re: Charged with 172(1) -- Seeking advice
So, nothing happened. I went to court and didn't have a chance to speak with the prosecutor beforehand. I sat in a pew and waited for my name to be called. When it was called, I stood before the JP and my charges were read to me. She then asked me how I wanted to proceed with this case. I told her I...

Re: Charged with 172(1) -- Seeking advice
Not a chance. If they try it, ask for an adjournment on the basis that you are not ready to proceed to trial and need more time for disclosure review, etc. Thanks again, this calmed me down some. Last question... do you/does anyone know how I should approach the prosecutor if I'm not immediately of...

Re: Charged with 172(1) -- Seeking advice
So three possible scenarios I can think of (1, 2a and 2b)... #1- Prosecutor does NOT offer you any kind of plea deal: Nicely say that you would like to get a copy of the disclosure and seek legal advice before you decide how you are going to plead, and would like to set another date. If they did no...

Re: Charged with 172(1) -- Seeking advice
When the officer pulled you over, what did he give you (it will say what it is at the top of whatever he gave you)? Did the officer give you a SUMMONS with a court date on it to appear? Or did the officer give you a NOTICE OF OFFENCE that you signed and mailed in and then they sent you a NOTICE OF ...

Re: Charged with 172(1) -- Seeking advice
Step 1.) Request disclosure. Google it and you'll find out the process - you can fax them your request. After that, see if you have a case, and if you don't, take a deal - they'll 'usually' offer you a deal, if you've never had a prior I'd be surprised if they don't offer you one. It's the luck of ...

Charged with 172(1) -- Seeking advice
Hello everyone, Exactly a week ago today, I was caught going 135 in an 80, on Highway 3 near Windsor, Ontario. I know this is just completely idiotic and there hasn't been a minute since I was charged that I haven't been smacking myself for this. I'm very, very remorseful and just overall torn about...
