Re: Should I still go to court even if ticket was reduced?

I want the ticket dismissed....but I know my only hope is to go to court, if cop shows I will plead guilty...if he doesn't I will plead not guilty. Not that easy but I guess I can wait till just about when court is about to start and see if cop shows... ?
I'm just trying out all my options

Should I still go to court even if ticket was reduced?

I got a speeding ticket in May 2012 near Niagara Falls, Ontario. Ticket was reduced from 115km in a 100km zone. It does show 'R' on the ticket stated it was reduced. I requested disclosure. I received it just this week with my scheduled telephone call to the prosecutor coming up Dec 7th. I got the radar book, my abstract profile and officers notes which basically say I was speeding along with his itinerary of the day. My question is: What am I going to say when I talk to the prosecutor? Take the reduced deal? Do i take it to court knowing my only hope is that cop doesn't show up? They might ev...

Electronic Early Resolution Meeting Notice...what to do?

I got a speeding ticket in May 2012 on OPP highway Niagara. I live in Toronto
The ticket was reduced to 115kmh in a 100kmh zone. $52.50 fine

I have a scheduled telephone call with a Prosecutor in December 2012. I'm basically trying to get this ticket cancelled either by delaying or hopefully thinking the cop might not show up. I know its taking a chance. Do i tell the prosecutor I want to go to trial? ..and If I do, can i still pay the fine up until my court date? Do i ask for disclosure documents now?

Re: Taking a reduced speeding ticket to court...options?

Ok .. thanks for the replies.

Well aside from hoping the officer doesn't show up, Skywalker12's comments asking for disclosure documents would have to be another option. I have requested a phone hearing since i live 75kms away. I assume I would ask the prosecutor on the phone at that time for disclosure documents?

Taking a reduced speeding ticket to court...options?

Hi I got a OPP ticket 135km in 100km ...reduced to 115km by the policeman. Niagara Falls ON. I am thinking of going to court under the hopeful premise the policeman doesn't show up.... I was also thinking of sending someone else to represent me and not to check in until the very last second. This way if the policeman does show, he'll delay the trial for another day and state I couldn't make it...if he doesn't show, my friend will plead not guilty for me and charge will be dismissed. I do understand if I do go to court and policeman does show up, I run the risk of presecutor raising the charge ...
