Summons For An "owner" Violation With Set Fine
Apologies if this is the wrong board, but this seems to be a procedure question...
Our house received a summons for a Fail to Stop 175(19) violation. Beyond the fact that we are confused at receiving this and dispute the incident occurred, I am even more confused by the proceedings...
There is a set fine listed for 175(19), and 175(25) states that no summons shall be issued.
Is it therefore appropriate that we have now received a summons?
What happens when you receive a summons where the law specifically states that none should be issued?
My understanding is that the penalty for being found guilty would now be higher (due to court costs) than what it should have been, which seems unfair.
