Section 63.8 Disposition versions

1987-04-01

63.8. Where it has been impossible to offer compensatory work or where the defendant refuses or fails to do such work, the collector, if the fine has not been paid, may present a verbal application to a justice of the peace in order that imprisonment be then prescribed.

The collector shall, before presenting the application, notify the defendant of the nature of the application and of the time and place it will be presented. The justice of the peace may, however, hear the application against the defendant if it has been impossible to notify him despite reasonable efforts to do so and the collector proves that the defendant cannot be found or is eluding justice.

The collector shall, if the defendant is a person under 18 years of age, notify the person’s parents of his intention to present an application in accordance with this section. Subsections 4 and 5 of section 16 and section 29.1 apply, mutatis mutandis, to the notice.
