Dress up! If the judge sees a punk kid in front of him (not saying you are) he will not give you a chance! If he sees a business man/professional then you will have more of a shot to beat the case. KEEP YOUR TEMPER IN CHECK. NEVER have an outburst. Just nod and smile, speak when it is your turn, and ALWAYS say SIR, MAM, or YOUR HONOR!! Make notes when the officier is talking about things you disagree with because you will be able to (or your lawyer) get to cross examine and find holes in what the officer said when you get to ask question to him.
If you car has any markings such as stickers that will clearly make your car appear different then use that as mistaken identity! Etc… you get my drift! OH and dont talk like a professional athlete with all the uhhhmmmm and aahhhhhs. Pauses like that are distacting, so be as clear and professional with tone as possible.
im going to reiterate what has alraedy been reiterated several times; go to moores or international clothiers and invest in a cheap suit ffs. respect the judge, respect his courtroom and youll be in good standing, the rest is up to your lawyer.
im not putting to much about my car on here for a reason, take my advice if everythings running good and you got gas always dip noo matter what especially if your doing anywhere near 50 over its just not worth stopping. but i never ever do that shit ever…lmao but that sucks man hope all goes allright and for the rest of the sonlings reading this take my million dollar advice. i dono about u guys but that was at least a good 40% chunk of why i baught my car haha
The crown or offence will ask you questions over and over again but word them differently and they will say you said stuff you didn`t, so when you hit the stand remember what your saying as you say it.
Be confident and firm when your answering questions. Dont beat around the bush…um…uhh…i guess…i think, these just lead to more questions. Fucking police power trip.
It’s not so much what you know from four months ago, but rather your cknsitwncy in answering relatively the same under intense questioning. The crown wants ton destroy your credibility, which in turn, damages your testimony . The crown is not allowed to ask leading questions in the cross examination.
The examination-in-chief is supposed tk estabikish the time frame, place, and your side of the story. You and your lawyer need to go over this HARD and stick to it of course, because the crown is noting everything as is the judge. If you stick to your story it will be difficult to damage your credibility unless they can prove you were lying.
Remember the officer is open to questioning you are gonna hate his side of the story but you are gonna love the cross.
ahaha. Love it!
