My son was flashed speeding in a town at the other end of the country from home. He responded to the NIP and when the matter was to be handed over the magistrates court, he gave a guilty plea by post. There is no question of his guilt and as my wife/his mother is a JP, we have done everything by the book.
It is several weeks if not more since he posted the guilty plea and we still await any communication from the relevant Court. Assuming that they have received it; is there any time limit on the Court to do something about it? If they do not respond within say nine months, what does he say to the insurers at the next renewal? He has no points and has never had points on his licence.
At what point can he legitimately say that there is nothing pending?
