Five courtroom cases heard by Judge Thompson at Roblin court
Judge Richard Thompson presided over five cases in Roblin provincial court. A 29 year old woman faced a first offense for driving without a valid licence after backing into a parked car at Johnson's Highway Service and paid a 50 dollar fine plus 16 dollars costs. A man who drove after his wife fell ill was fined 40 dollars for disobeying a traffic control device and 50 dollars for driving with an invalid licence class. Gordon McKay, with an invalid learner permit, was charged after running a red light in Dauphin. Marilyn Fleury received 300 dollars and 45 dollars costs for driving while suspended. Fleury was convicted of driving over .08 in March 1989. Thompson warned the penalties aim to reflect drinking and driving consequences. A Saskatchewan resident with no prior convictions was fined 50 dollars for careless driving after striking a parked car on Main Street. A Valley River resident, George Severie, got a 30 day intermittent jail sentence for two bad cheques. Crown pushed for incarceration and restitution, but the judge ordered 30 days consecutive on each count, amended to weekend terms to keep work. The judge stressed not to penalize families or jobs.
