Received Disclosure - Questions Concerning Next Steps?
I just recently received my disclosure package in the mail for a red light camera ticket. It took two requests and as to be expected was incomplete with no explanation for the missing pieces. I was hoping for some guidance on my next step.
Should I request disclosure again for the pieces missing (my second request included explanations as to why I required the pieces specified (i.e. either a copy or the ability to view the camera operators manual to understand the operation of the camera)? My court date is Sept 21st so it would not leave much time for the prosecutor to follow up again (my first request was back on June 30th). Or should I wait for the trial date and request a stay of proceedings due to the failure to receive full disclosure?
Secondly, the disclosure package I received contained the following; a letter from the Registrar of Motor Vehicles attesting to the truthfulness of the records provided; certificate of ownership; enlarged prints of the photos included on the ticket. However, the certificate of ownership is not for my plate (they mixed up a digit hence I received verification of someone elses plate). Im assuming the prosecutor will introduce the certificate of ownership as evidence in order to prove the plate is mine and that I am liable for the offence. Is there a valid argument concerning this error (if in fact it is brought up in court and not corrected prior or during trial) over the fact that they havent proved the plate is mine or is that just a minor technicality that can be justifiable overlooked/corrected during trial?
