The Queen vs. The Defendant

Cases for Release and Bail

  • R. v. B.Q.2025

    This was a file involving a complex file for which I was trying to get my client released on bail. Over the course of several weeks, I was able to get everything in place and provide the judge and the prosecutor with written submissions. Once I did that, when I appeared in court, the prosecutor said he would consent to my client's release. This was on the most minimal conditions possible considering the seriousness for the charges. The client therefore will not have to remain in custody pending a trial. My client was very pleased with the outcome, as was I, as it seemed an impossible result.

  • R. v. S.V.2024

    The client was charged with breaching a court order. The allegation was that the client did not adhere to no contact conditions. This was clearly a case of the complainant wanting to use the allegation for family court proceedings. I was able to ultimately have the charge dropped. This left my client with no conviction and no criminal record.

  • R. v. C.D.2024

    The client was charged with breaching the condition of his peace bond. The allegation was that the client violated the condition not to contact one of the complainants. I reviewed the disclosure, and confirmed that in fact there was no contact as the complainant alleged. I spoke with the prosecutor. The prosecutor agreed and the charge was dropped. The client was left with no conviction and no criminal record.
