Question juridique clé
Whether the objection against the penalty order was filed within time
Solution extraite
The objection was untimely; the police had delivered the penalty order on 16 October 2012, so the 20 November 2012 objection was late.
Motifs extraits
The court found the appellant's alternative account implausible and accepted that the document handed over by police was the penalty order intended for him. Any defect in the initial filing did not change that the merits of the timeliness argument were unfounded.
