Screening Form from Crown

Hello,

This is regarding a criminal charge for driving impaired in Ontario, Canada.

On my Screening Form from the Crown it says “The Crown’s position on sentencing if a guilty plea is entered *before* a date for trial or preliminary hearing is set: ______ ” (fine and eligible for interlock system on vehicle)

Above this it indicates “That on finding of guilt the Crown will request:______” (Driving Prohibition Order)

Does this mean that if I plead guilty before I go to trial I will not get a license suspension? (Other than the 90 day issued the day I was arrested)

Or does it mean I will get a license prohibition, plus a fine and interlock system if found guilty?

I will be pleading guilty. I’m just curious to find out if I will get my license back soon or not.

Thanks

Restraining Order, appeal

I am hoping to appeal a permanent restraining order in Colorado. I am fairly confident that the person who took the order out would not fight to keep it in place as it has been 15 years. However, I am wondering if it is even possible after entering a guilty plea with no defense posed in the initial trail. As well, what is a ballpark cost for something like this?

Is our apartment owner (Seal Beach, CA)legally responsible to evict this tenant to protect us? He has attacked us, threw things at us and threatened us.This is an Oakwood complex with 550 units.
