Brampton Provincial Offences court is one of 3 courts in Peel region, and it is a very busy court in Ontario when it comes to handling Stunt Driving cases. Just because court appearances are by ZOOM, you are still attending the Brampton court and dealing with Brampton Prosecutors. The Brampton court takes a very specific strategy to navigate in order to deal with your Stunt Driving charges.  Let's investigate.

The Brampton court is the busiest of the 3 Peel region courts

Peel Region has 3 courthouses, all run by different prosecution teams:



- Brampton court - this court is located at 5 Ray Lawson Blvd.  This court has just migrated to Municipal prosecutors and has a heavy caseload.

- Mississauga court - this court is at 950 Burnhamthorpe Rd W, and is also quite a busy court.  In this court, there are many different prosecutors and court dates are extremely busy.

- Caledon court - this court, located at 6311 Old Church Rd and is the smallest of the Peel region courts.  There is a limited number of prosecutors and court dates are also very busy, due to the sheer lack of size of this court and resources.



What do I need to know about the Brampton court?

Because the Brampton court has been handed to the Municipal prosecution team, it means that there are now multiple prosecutors that can screen or handle your file.  Certain prosecutors can take a strong stance on Stunt and other may be more flexible.  The risk comes that if you end up speaking to a heavier-handed prosecutor, and the radar and evidence are in line, you may have a difficult time keeping your license.  It is very important to make sure you navigate this court correctly, or you run a serious risk of losing your license for 1-3 years.

What happens if I try to handle my Stunt charges by myself?

You absolutely have the option to handle the charge yourself when dealing with the Brampton court.  However, the question you have to ask is "If this doesn't go well, what am I risking?".  And with a Stunt charge you are risking:



- 1-3 years mandatory suspension

- $2,000 - $10,000 in fines

- possible jail time

- and more



The main issue in this court can occur if you discuss your case with the wrong prosecutor, or don't have the proper strategy for these discussions.

So how can I get the best result from the Brampton court?

In summary, seek legal assistance, especially in Brampton. Facing a strict prosecutor could be your only opportunity to handle your case effectively, and encountering an unfavorable one could result in losing your license or even worse consequences. For the best outcome in your Stunt case, consult with a law firm that regularly practices in Brampton court and has a solid strategy.
