What she acts in
Charlotte appears regularly in court across a range of matters, from the Magistrates Court through to the Supreme Court of Queensland.
Her work covers serious assaults, sexual assaults, drug trafficking and traffic matters. Charges at that end of the range turn on the detail of the police material rather than on the charge sheet, so the early work of reading it properly and testing what is actually provable is where the outcome is usually decided.
Section 12 of the Penalties and Sentences Act 1992 (Qld) gives a court a discretion whether to record a conviction, and the consequences a conviction would carry for your work, your travel or your licence are exactly the kind of evidence that argument needs. Raising it after sentence is far harder than raising it before, so bring it up at the first appointment.
