    Intention to prosecute

    Intention to prosecute

    Is it advisable to offer to settle out of court by phone?

    Hi Season, I am in a similar situation. Did they send you a summons straight away for prosecution or did you try and appeal your case first? Please let me know what happens with your case. Thanks
