Qp9 stands for Queensland Police Form 9 and is a form that the police fill in when they charge you. It lists the exact charge with a brief description of the facts which they allege against you. The Qp9 is usually picked up at your first mention. You may request that you receive it before this date.
The Magistrate may order that you spend time in custody while you are waiting for the case to be finalised. Alternatively, the Magistrate may order that you be released back into the community on certain conditions during this time. The release is called bail and you must promise that you will return to court for Trial or Sentence. Other conditions imposed on you may be to report to the police on a regular basis.
If you are refused bail in the Magistrates Court you can apply for bail in the Supreme Court. Such an application requires a large amount of preparation and Beavon Lawyers has an enviable track record when it comes to these applications.
The first day that you attend court for the offence is a ‘mention’. This is a short appearance advising the Magistrate or Judge what is to happen next in the matter. It is not unusual for there to be a number of mentions before the matter is finalised.
