@AbsoluteTT:
Hi Catherine,
Thank you for your inputs. So the even if I just ignore the ticket and the JP examines the ticket and finds it incomplete and irregular on its face, he will still have the prosecutor amend the certificate? I'm trying to look at POA Sec 9.2.b which states
Action by justice
(2) Where a defendant is deemed to not wish to dispute the charge, a justice shall examine the certificate of offence and shall,
(a) where the certificate of offence is complete and regular on its face, enter a conviction in the defendants absence and
without a hearing and impose the set fine for the offence; or
(b) where the certificate of offence is not complete and regular on its face, quash the proceeding. 2009, c. 33, Sched. 4, s.
1 (13)
Are you referring to an instance where one request for a trial, showed up and moved to quash the proceedings? I am actually referring to the option of just ignoring the ticket because of offence stated unknown to law as earlier quoted from the ticket "SPEEDING KM/HR IN A KM/HR ZONE". I'd like to know that if the JP decides to quash the proceedings based on the above sec 9.2.b POA, will I be notified that the proceedings has been quashed (eg. by mail)?
