Missed the time to dispute a ticket? Filing a late ticket dispute

When it comes to disputing a traffic ticket, you only have 30 days from the date you got the ticket to file for a dispute.

If you miss the 30-day time limit, you may be able to file a late dispute of your ticket, but this is only permitted in certain circumstances where you missed the time limit for reasons beyond your control.

In order to file a late dispute, you must submit an application to the court, and it can only be filed if you have not paid the ticket. If you’ve already paid, your options are different and will be touched on later in this blog.

A jury of eight men and four women found Virtanen not guilty following a week-long trial that hinged primarily on the different accounts between the athlete and the complainant of a 2017 encounter.

…

Kyla Lee, a Vancouver-based criminal lawyer who was not involved in the case, says that instruction is common in criminal trials and is an especially high bar to clear in sexual assault cases.

“You don’t have to believe what somebody says in order to have reasonable doubt,” she told Global News.

“These cases (sexual assault trials) are often ‘he said, she said’ cases. But really, it’s a case about credibility … and the only time somebody can be convicted is when there’s proof beyond a reasonable doubt.”
