reavo2k9 20 Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 I have just won an appeal for dangerous driving I have done my rip for the last ten months as them half head magistrates found me guilty on 4 charges of dangerous driving , no insurance , licence , or mot well shame on them I went to crown court and the prosecutor told my barrister they wasn't giving evidence ?? They charged me for riding on the dell a bit of waste land ha it isn't a public place or a highway so bye law couldn't do shit ha ha the only evidence they had anyhow was a plastic cop saying he saw me I went not guilty all the way lone behold his face was a pic when I walked out free with my licence back .. I did a 100 hours community service for free basically .. My advice is don't ever get your case heard in magistrates go to crown court . I am tempting on the idea of trying to claim back the 100 hours I did any ideas [NO TEXT TALK] ??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wxm 1,638 Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 the thing with going straight to a crown court is it can go the other way as the magistrates court has a limit to the sentance they give and upto x amount on a fine ..... something like 6 months prison and / or £1000 fine (may not me the right one's) id leave it at that ... but crackin mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reavo2k9 20 Posted October 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 True true fellas he was only a plassy cop I wouldn't of minded but I have lodged complaints against him in the past , I think he wants brownie points but cps did say he would be getting a reprimand ??

akton 15 Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) Its not the plassy coppers fault mate,he only charges you with the offence,The CPS are the ones that take you to court. so its the CPS that you want to sue, for your lost time of 100 hrs. My mate is a Barrister and comes accross this all the time.some of the stories he tells me are really bad. the coppers, wether plassy ones or not, see someone doing something wrong and try to uphold the law.the CROWN PROSECUTION SERVICE (cps) are the ones that have truly fu ..kked up but well done to you, for taking the stance and fighting for your rights good result Edited October 23, 2010 by akton Quote Link to post Share on other sites
