    Court Summons for speeding offence

    Thanks again 007. I called the Court Clerk and explained situation. I mentioned the name of the Guard that told me to forget about it and mentioned serving a witness summons on him and just my luck, he apparently doesn't work there anymore! So, I was advised to write down all my details, send...

    Court Summons for speeding offence

    Midlandbase, thanks for that. So it was quite possibly on the system when I rang and he just didn't look in the right place. I am going to give him a call anyways and see if he remembers, if so he might feel guilty and explain to the Traffic Guard and consequently she may 'forget' to appear in...

    Court Summons for speeding offence

    Witness Summons. Right but should I try to speak to the original Guard that told me to forget it. We had quite a long conversation as I was worried if I didn't pay it what would happen and that there might be another database with details of my fine that he could not see. He reassured me that...

    Court Summons for speeding offence

    Oh sugar, criminal???? Would I have got a criminal record if I had been able to pay it in the first place or is it only 'criminal' after going to court and getting a judgement passed?

    Court Summons for speeding offence

    Thanks 007, have been thinking about this all afternoon (plus what the neighbours must be thinking !!?) Since I comitted the offence, I should get the penalty points and I think I'd rather pay the court directly than a solicitor. I can't prove that I tired to pay nor that the Guard told me to...

    Court Summons for speeding offence

    Ok, thanks. Does anyone know how much the potential fine could be as oposed to how much it will cost me to engage a solicitor? How many points are you allowed on your licence before its revoked and will 4 points affect my insurance?

    Court Summons for speeding offence

    I phoned the Guarda station just a few minutes ago. It's the other side of the country as I was at home with parents at the time. Guard checked and said that the speeding offence was showing on their system now. I explained what had happened and he said that he couldnt see what exact date the...

    Court Summons for speeding offence

    Hi, last September I received a speeding fine with a picture of my reg and details of my speeding offence 84km in a 50km zone. I went to pay it before the 30 days or so expired and couldn't find the letter/fine anywhere. I rang up the Guarda station that I thought issued the fine and spoke to a...

    Review of Prime Time programme on auctioneers

    Re: Illegal activities of estate agents etc.-Primetime 10.12.06 ...the fault of the Government for letting us (them) get away with it! Basically that was his point! Reminded me of the president of the law society speaking today on newstalk saying that a lot of barristers are poor and lead...

    Buying friends share of property

    Was just thinking of some options, the house needs major renovations which would increase the value quite a lot. Nothing has been done to it for the last 20 yrs, needs new roof, dry lining, landscaping etc. For these reasons an interest only would keep costs down while it's being done up then...

    Buying friends share of property

    Thanks Vanilla, we paid 1.5% of purchase price. Would my sister still have to pay the 10% deposit for the morgage? Also there is no reason we can't switch to an interest only morgage, is there? I am trying to make it as attractive for her as possible so may have to cover all fees and keep her...

    Hi, I have looked through the board to find similar threads but still confused as to the exact process & fees regarding this type of transaction. Apologies for going over old ground. I would be grateful if I posted my details if someone could give me an accurate as possible sequence of events...

    Can 69yr old qualify for morgtage?

    Maire, because the 700k that my father has is in assets; his home and two farms of land. He has a small retirement income, pension and rent from some land. He wouldn't want to sell any land (unless in the unlikely case we got into difficulty) he would prefer be guarentor or do whatever he has to...

    Can 69yr old qualify for morgtage?

    I agree Sarah and I don't think he'd care much himself for being evicted either. It was a long shot and I don't think its realistically possible to get approval even though it is possible to repay, if you see what I mean. It would generate rental income of 1500 for a start from day one. If the...
