What to check in your case
ANSR states that a formal request to inspect a file, made within the defence period, suspends that period. The same applies to a timely request for a speeding photograph that did not accompany the notice. Once a decision has been served, requesting access does not stop the court appeal deadline. Keep both the request receipt and the letter granting access. For minor parking offences handled by a municipality, contact the authority on the notice.
