Correct, but you wouldn't be convicted without evidence. You might be charged as a consequence of an allegation but the CPO or Procurator Fiscal in Scotland would throw it out. I'm sure you need at least two forms of corroboration to confirm that some fact or statement is true or the charge would be dropped.
Your point about evidence is correct, and that evidence would have to given to the court in person by the witness, although police can give some evidence via section 10 statements, i.e. they don't always need to attend.
In your case the witness/aggrieved/informant would have to attend court. If not a not guilty verdict would be made by the court.
When making a decision based on a balance of probability, an allegation alone falls way short of the mark of what is credible evidence. And what is more, you are not allowed the opportunity to test the veracity of the allegation by cross examining your accuser.
A loaded dice one might claim.
btw, this is at the council hearing.
FFS GARRY GET A LIFE.
Your stupid scenario is just that. You cannot compare criminal with civil.
What is evident is that the Council, being a civil body, go on the balance of probability and since you adopted an arrogant attitude by refusing to respond to the allegation, you made it appear more probable that you did arrogantly make obscene gestures or comments to a member of the public.
Where is your corroboration that the complainant is a liar? Or is he not allowed to be innocent until proven guilty? You have consistently failed to tell the whole story and instead choose to feed us half-truths to make yourself look like the victim so why should anyone believe you?
Also what you haven't said is that your licence was suspended, not just because of the original incident, but because of your failure to comply with your licensing conditions by responding to authorised officers etc.
Had you ignored the failyor's advice (Jasbar who doesn't risk his own livelihood) and gone to the meeting, you would have loved being in front of them and possibly stuck it right up 'em.
Instead, you rightly lost for refusing to comply with licensing conditions; conditions which apply to everyone else.
Accept it and move on since you have now found that no solicitor will take your case and ignore taylor because he's already fed you enough bullshit
The council never followed their procedures. I did not receive the written complaint or asked to respond in writing. I was told the nature of the allegation over the phone which I denied. I was then asked to agree to an interview with the Cab Inspector, (Police Inspector) whom I declined telling him I had nothing further to say on the matter. As for their licensing conditions, it was never established to any degree that I breached any of them. They merely made the claim because I exercised my right not to speak to a malicious allegation and they chose to believe the complainant. And lets be quite clear, you can't breach a licence condition by exercising your rights. Your rights come first.
There were no witnesses, and no way to substantiate the complainant. Credible evidence was lacking in the extreme. To have spoken further to the allegation would have made no difference whatsoever as there was nothing more I could add.
In short, they made it up from the start to finish. The guy who made the allegation told a pack of lies and just happens to have a brother working in CRT, which tells another story. This was no member of the public aggrieved by my actions that's for sure.
Not that it would have made a difference in any case as it was a foregone conclusion my licence would be removed at the first opportunity. The councillors were not independent or impartial judges. Nor was I afforded the opportunity to cross examine my accuser to test the veracity of his allegation. A fair hearing was almost impossible under the circumstances.
You might find the above totally acceptable, but I have a little more respect for myself. That's why you lot, bend over and take it up the arse, and because you do it, they expect me to do the same.
The fact, that any of you find the above acceptable proves beyond a reasonable doubt that you are scum.
btw, the legal profession makes a fortune out of the CGSA, and turkeys don't vote for Christmas, only taxi drivers.
