Traffic fine, should I appeal to the subdistrict court?

Questioner

Dear, I have received a traffic fine (mulder fine) for: As a driver holding a mobile electronic device while driving (offence code: R545) I have appealed this fine; A) it is not true B) not stopped C) no photos or anything However, my appeal was rejected and the letter states: Decision of the public prosecutor; The public prosecutor has ruled on the appeal lodged against the above-mentioned decision. For the content and motivation of the decision, reference is made to the motivation sent separately by the public prosecutor. However, to date I have still not received any reasons and it is therefore completely unclear to me on what grounds the public prosecutor made this decision. I am going to appeal again to the subdistrict court, but my question to you is what happens next? Is the public prosecutor obliged to inform me of the reasons? Or will this take a longer period of time? I look forward to hearing from you, Yours sincerely,

Dear questioner, The officer does not have to state until the hearing on what he bases his claim. However, you can view the documents/file at the registry of the court (or request a copy via a lawyer). I would do that as soon as possible, because then you will know the basis for the fine. If I read your story correctly, it is either a mistake or the fine is based on the observation of a police officer (in plain clothes). In the latter case, a report must be in the file. Good luck with that, lawyer

Dear, if I understand you correctly, you have already filed an appeal and the Public Prosecutor has already decided on that appeal and said that they are sticking to their guns. This happens often, and two letters are often sent. Namely, firstly, the decision and secondly, the motivation. I fear that the motivation has not reached you. I would like to explicitly point out to you that, in the letter in which the decision is stated (namely that they are sticking to their guns) it also states that - if you do not agree with the Public Prosecutor's decision - you have a LIMITED time to bring the case before the court. I would therefore like to advise you with KLEM not to let that term run if you do not agree with the fine. It is better to take the step to court now and then withdraw it later than to let this term run.
