Patterson Law Lawyer Ria Pleass strikes again on behalf of motorist at risk of a ban...read on..
We took on a last minute case yesterday for a chap at risk of a totting ban.
The trial was listed for 2pm today and we were up against it. We made an urgent application for an adjournment - the court refused.
It was an allegation of contravening a red traffic light. Two officers in a car some 100 meters behind out client claimed they had seen the offence.
Our client denied the offence and had entered a not guilty plea. We fully prepared the trial and briefed our Barrister to attend. We had an abuse of process argument to thrown into the mix on the basis that a video allegedly recording the incident had been destroyed by the police.
Our Barrister attended court, explained the defence/abuse of process argument and our client's instructions. The CPS agreed to offer no evidence and withdraw the case - Great victory - Defendant's costs order granted - All in the space of less than 24 hours !!
Whilst we are happy to take instructions at the last minute - please try and get in touch as early as possible - its not good for our hearts!
