My Cases — "Not Guilty, You are Free to leave"

How might your case be dismissed? Your testimony might raise a reasonable doubt (Sidney), the complainant might be unbelievable (Darko), or the Crown might fail to prove an essential element (Nick). Even before your trial starts, your case could be dismissed for excessive delay. All information has been edited to protect my clients' privacy.
