Inquiry: Hello, I have some tickets that I have been paying off and getting extensions for. I have always paid more then what I have been instructed. I was wondering if there is a way to get them to reduce or annul or to cancel out my tickets entirely.
Response: Unfortunately, arguments regarding penalties are made at the original hearings. At this point we would be unable to assist you. It is important to know your rights and potential defences at the start of a case rather than after the matter has been ruled on, especially in cases where large fines or other serious penalties can be applied by the court. We’re generally able to reduce the penalties being sought by the Prosecution if we’ve been retained at the start of a case, unfortunately once the matter has been ruled on there is generally little when can do at that point.
Sincerely,
Greg Currie
