R. v. R.A.M. – New Westminster Provincial Court
Charge: Sexual Assault (reduced to Peace Bond).
Issue: Whether the complainant’s evidence would be credible and reliable at trial, and whether there was public interest in continuing to prosecute our client.
Result: Mr. Johnston was able to provide information to Crown counsel about our client’s circumstances and the circumstances of the incident which persuaded the Crown to agree to resolve the matter by applying for a peace bond rather than continuing the criminal prosecution. Stay of Proceedings. No criminal record.
