The strangest thing just happened. My friend came to my house, and tried to convince me to go to the Markham court and try to plead my case. I didn't feel comfortable doing this myself, so I told my friend to drive me to my paralegal. Unfortunately my regular paralegal wasn't in the office, so I spo...
The reason most of the mail for your ticket went to your old address is that tickets are processed through the Provincial Offences Court in the municipality where you got the ticket, not through the Ministry of Transportation. So changing the address on your licence with the Ministry of Transportat...
Service Ontario hasn't kept those licence renewal documents for a few years now. They simply input all of the data and give it right back to you. They also don't always print off a new permit for you for an address change unless you ask for one. It's probably been changed on the computer system tho...
I just looked at my Ownership card, and sure enough it has my old address. This must have been because the lady at the booth said "This is yours" and let me walk out with the Application form. This is the form where you write the number of kilometres, insurance etc... And now I can't even ...

I knew I had a good chance at getting off on the red light, because the officer couldn't actually see the light facing me. He was at an opposite angle, further up the street. I set a court date for both tickets. On Apr...
Keep in mind that option 1 is pleading guilty with immediate payment out of court, and no chance of lowering the fine. You're accepting and paying the ticket "as is." You'll need option 2 or option 3. Most of the JPs at the courthouse on Markham Road will lower the fine if you give them a...
Thanks for the response. That's probably what I'm going to do. Unless someone can think of a good reason to set a trial date. I guess the only advantage to setting a trial date is that the trial date might not arrive for another year. I'm guessing the odds of having this thrown out because of backlo...
On January 19 I received a Red Light Camera Notice (Form 5.1). I don't really have any good arguements to make, but I also can't afford to pay the $325. I had a heart transplant a few years ago and I am receiving disability (ODSP). Do I go into the Markham court and choose option 1, and then talk to...
