Fatal Flaw?

Hey sorry to stray away from your 'white' defense. I have just read another person's forum where they mention that they have recieved a fine of $325... 260 for the fine, 60 for the victims surcharge, and 5 for the court costs. I asked if this was an error on his ticket and Radar Identified mentioned...

Really?! I have in front of my my ticket and it says Set fine $250, Total Payable $300. Then beside that it says, Total payable includes set fine, applicable victim fine surcharge and costs. Is it possible that there are different Total Payables for each city or is there a flaw that I didn't know of...

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but if you have been charged with 144 (18), I'm under the understanding that it is a $250 charge with a $50 victims surcharge (Whatever that is, ... a crock). If I am correct this would be a fatal flaw. What you would have to do is choose to fight it, then NO...

Alright I will have to do that as far as the pictures are concerned. I definately feel that I am 'onto something' as far as me feeling that the officer, from his viewpoint believed that I had entered into the intersection on a red light. In his notes he says that I 'cut the corner'. This only streng...

Wow, alot of good information here and I do appreciate it. Let me be clear Biron, I wasn't meaning to be belligerant in any way. I have, from the beginning been open to everyone's comment. I do apoligize that it seemed I was saying that you said I HAD to get a paralegal. I understand that it would b...

Perfect! Thank you. It's nice to know the basic format that will take place. So my understanding is that the defence is governed differently as far as how they can question the witness. Meaning they are somewhat permitted to ask 'leading questions' to have the witness say what you want them to say. ...

The officer's wording was "Why did you run that light" I answered "Just stupidity" The only thing, if anything I can see them proving is that I failed to yield to an amber light. But that is not what I am being charged with. How can I go about trying to get a visual of the inters...

Yes I agree. I'm not to concerned with being charged with failing to yield to an amber light. Case law says that once I am in trial for failing to yield to a red light they can't change the charge. I disagree that I HAVE to hire a paralegal to fight my case. I believe that the courts were set up so ...

Thanks so much for the reply. The one thing I am unsure about is cross examining the officer. Could you make some suggestions as to the questions that I could ask. From what I researched I could have been charged with fail to yield to an amber light which carries the same fine. Is it possible that r...

144(8) I got a ticket for running a red... on an amber?

Hey, I've chosen to fight the ticket that I was given. I was given a ticket for running a red light. The only thing is, I entered while it was yellow. Here is the situation. I was making a left hand turn onto a road. I was going at about 50 Km/hour. As I was approaching the green light it turned to ...
