21.01.2022 DRIVING DISQUALIFICATION MATTER AT DOWNING CENTRE LOCAL COURT Today I represented a client in a driving licence disqualification matter. According to s221B(1) of the The Road Transport Amendment (Driver Licence Disqualification) Act 2017 Act, The Local Court may remove all licence disqualifications if the disqualified person has not been convicted of any driving offence for conduct during the relevant offence-free period which in today's case was two years.... Further, and according to Section 221B(2), The Local Court must take into account the following in determining whether it is appropriate to remove the licence disqualifications: a) the safety of the public, b) the applicant’s driving record, c) whether the applicant drove or was in a position to drive a vehicle during the relevant offence-free period, d) any relevant conduct of the applicant subsequent to the licence disqualifications, e) the nature of the offence or offences giving rise to the licence disqualifications f) any other relevant circumstances (including the applicant’s capacity to travel for the purposes of employment, business, education or training, the applicant’s health and finances and the availability of alternative forms of transport. After taking the Magistrate through the considerations as outlined above, our client's disqualification was removed. Accordingly he is eligible to drive again. Should you need any advice on any traffic law/criminal law matter, message me here or call now on 0415 604 593.

15.01.2022 CORONAVIRUS AND BAIL APPLICATIONS. Coronavirus is impacting on the prospects for bail. Accused persons who have been refused bail previously are now being granted bail due to the issue of delay. Here is a case extract where Coronavirus has directly impacted on bail:... Re Broes [2020] VSC 128 (19 March 2020): [46]Given the extraordinary circumstances in which we now find ourselves, I have come to the conclusion that an already significant delay will be likely exacerbated by the consequences of COVID-19, and I am therefore satisfied that exceptional circumstances have been established. [39] there can be no question that once the virus is discovered in any of the Victorian prisons, there will have to be a significant lockdown for a number of reasons. The transmission between prisoners will be significant and likely to occur at a much greater rate than the transmission that is occurring in the community at present. That will result in a large number of prisoners becoming quite seriously ill, depending on their age and underlying conditions. I appreciate these are matters of speculation to a degree, but the situation is sufficiently urgent to required them to be taken into account. Further bearing in mind that the entire situation may have changed again within one or two weeks. I can be contacted here on Facebook message or by mobile direct 0410 639 921. We do not charge a fee for your initial inquiry so get in touch if you have any questions.

15.01.2022 DEFENDING YOURSELF AGAINST A HOME INTRUDER There are various state laws allowing a person to defend themselves against a home invasion. According to the Crimes Act NSW a person may use reasonable force to defend themselves or another person or protect property from unlawful taking, damage or interference.... However, self defence cannot be used as a defence if it causes death in circumstances of protecting property. Should you need any advice on any criminal law matter, contact me now on 0415 604 593.

12.01.2022 CORONAVIRUS COURTS The courts are racing to put in place technology for hearings to be done remotely. In terms of criminal and traffic law what this means is that persons who are not present in a court room will not be at risk of going to jail.... Bail applications will be able to be run on account of delays being encountered and persons are more likely to get bail granted. We further believe that there will be significant delays in police issuing charges as their resources are diverted and given the fact that police technology also needs to catch up to file documentation with courts remotely. In both the criminal and civil courts, we are rapidly moving to a position where appearances will be managed through the electronic and digital environment see: https://www.itnews.com.au//victoria-races-to-scale-up-virt We as a law firm available to give legal advice and to support the community continue to remain open during this period and if you have any inquiries in regard to criminal law or even other areas of law we are available to help you.
