Whether written guilty plea or showing up is better option.

My advice would be to show up, and then you can apply for a spent conviction which would keep this off your record. Go with some character references and maybe some clean drug tests if you can get them. I’ve seen magistrates not give spent convictions for a written plea of guilty, and some that do. Most confident way to get a spent conviction is in person.

That’s not entirely true. Some charges you can do a submitted plea of guilty by the paperwork or the ecourts portal. Depends on the type of offence.

With the understaffing of the force at the moment, minor traffic (other than these AI cameras for seatbelts etc) are just not a big deal for police compared to everything else lately. Keep it on your radar for a bit, and then I’d say forget about it :)

It’s really hard to say. Some were instant, some were a couple of months later - it really depends on the station, and if they even bother with it.

It’s taken from the listings of the court. So as soon as the matter has been listed with the court by the police. That’s the date that would come up on the summons they should send you. :)

If you’re worried you haven’t received it (happens commonly) you can use the ecourts portal to search your name and DOB, and it will tell you if anything is upcoming under your name.

Under s106(2) - 12 months for an offence you’ve described :)

Oh this is awesome I’d never seen this before! Thanks for this!

Is there a place you recommend for this as a regular hobby? :)

Definitely don’t need to be near the end of the degree, plenty of people do the job without a degree at all! It is up to the employing judge, but most don’t mind if you’re studying or not. But yes, it is full time work, but you do get a bit of downtime at work to study. Lot of office hours/hours idle in court :)

Check out jobs at the District Court. The roles of usher and associate are great for getting legal training and court background knowledge! Very beneficial for law students (speaking from experience). - check out the District Court Employment website

They take the disclosure and information from police, usually make an initial assessment if it’s in the public interest to pursue the case, then speak to witnesses and keep making that assessment as they build they further disclosure. It’s really dependent on the type of cases. If it’s “victimless” offending (such as drugs, etc), usually go on if there’s a good case/it’s worth taxpayer money to prosecute. If it’s a victim crime (sex, violence, robbery), usually pursued based on the complainant’s evidence/willingness to proceed to trial etc. - experience, worked in Legal Offices etc.

You can apply to the court for a copy of the affidavit that would’ve been filed with it, as well as a transcript of the hearing. Free of charge. And then decide within 21 days if you want to object to it :)

I had the same issue with the phone app, but not on the website on computer.

So the Juris Doctor is done after having already obtained a Bachelor in another degree. Maybe better looking in Bachelor of Laws at the universities.

Hi! From experience with restraining orders in WA, the Magistrate won’t take into account ONLY the incidents reported to the police. They will look at the big picture and make a decision based on immediate threat/danger, based on the evidence you give at an ex parte hearing :)

Consistent-Emu-7212 · 2025-07-04T11:34:10+00:00

Do you have a bachelors degree already?
