Summary

Case summaries are prepared by the Office of the Registrar of the Supreme Court of Canada (Law Branch). Please note that summaries are not provided to the Judges of the Court. They are placed on the Court file and website for information purposes only.

The appellant was arrested on April 4, 2017 at 11:50 a.m. He was not brought before a justice for his bail hearing until April 5, 2017 at 10:59 p.m. The continuing detention of the appellant pending a bail hearing was governed by s. 503(1)(a) of the Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46 which requires a detained person to be taken before a justice within a period of 24 hours and “without unreasonable delay” when a justice is available and brought “as soon as possible” when a justice is not available. The Crown conceded that the appellant had been held for longer than 24 hours before he was taken before a justice contrary to s. 503(1)(a) of the Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46, and that this was a breach of his ss. 7, 9 and 11(e) Charter rights. The provincial court judge issued a stay of proceedings. The Court of Appeal set aside the stay of proceedings and ordered the applicant to stand trial.
