District court fine

Builderfromhell

A legal procedural question.

Fine issued after court case.
Prosecuting solicitor confirmed that notification of how much to pay and where to be paid would be clarified by letter by him to defendant.
Letter never received.
'Notice that fine is due' received today.

As no other correspondence received no opportunity to appeal.

Is this normal or acceptable legal procedure?

If a person is present in court when an Order of court is made that person has notice of the making of the order and it is binding against them. In a district court case time within which to appeal expires 14 days from the date on which a person has notice of the Order, that being the date of the court case, if they were in court.

Presuming that the notice that fine is due states how much is due, option 1 is to pay the fine. Option 2 is to discuss with a solicitor appealling the Order of the court.

This post was unnecessary. The poster was crystal clear. If I see this again, an infraction will follow.
