			After disputing a speeding ticket, anyone have any recent experience in how long until you get a court date?

			I waited over a year. I could have filed to have it thrown out due to length of time but I didn't do the paperwork needed in time. 
 Berz out.

So if it's longer than 12months, then that violates our rights?  
Something like that. Not sure what paperwork you have to file though.

 |  You can attend the court registry and apply to the courts to have the ticket dismissed due to an infringement of your Charter Rights to be tried within a reasonable amount of time (Section 11b of Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms). For traffic tickets in the LMD, the “reasonable amount of time” used to be approximately 18 months, but I haven’t worked in the LMD for several years. In my neck of the woods in the north, tickets usually make their way to court in less than a year.   
The time calculated is time that is the fault of the Crown, so when a defendant adjurns their court date however many times they might, that time doesn’t count toward unreasonable delay. For example, trial is set for 1 year after the charge date, defendant delays 5-6 months due to work schedule, travel plans, etc, but police are ready and able to proceed during that time. Then police delay 1-2 months due to their schedule. The delay decision would be based on the 13-14 months only.   
These applications are heard in Provincial Court, in front of a Judge, at the first level, moved up from a Justice of the Peace in traffic court. Rules and processes are slightly different and any Charter applications are best argued by a lawyer. Appeals of a decision in Provincial Court then get heard in higher courts, all the way up to the Supreme Court of Canada which is the last stop.
