R. v. T.H. – Port Coquitlam Provincial Court

Charges: Sexual Assault (reduced to Peace Bond).

Issue: Whether the complainant’s evidence would be credible and reliable in this historic sexual assault allegation. Also, whether there was a public interest in continuing the prosecution against our client who was a youth at the time of the allegations.

Result: Mr. Gauthier was able to provide information to Crown counsel about our client’s circumstances and the circumstances of the incident. He persuaded Crown to make a peace bond application, rather than continuing the criminal prosecution. Stay of Proceedings. No criminal record.
