Charges: Uttering Threats; Extortion.

Issue: Given the age of the charges and the rehabilitative steps our client had taken, whether a jail sentence was appropriate.

Result: Mr. Mines was able to persuade Crown counsel to seek a non custodial sentence. After hearing Mr. Mines’ submissions, the Court granted our client a suspended sentence and placed him on probation for 16 months. No jail.
