We're back with a recent & topical criminal law decision - R v Simonelli! This decision, stemming from the OCJ in Brampton, concerns systemic, institutional delay at the Brampton Courthouse. The decision, which examines systemic delay - what that means, and what it looks like - is an essential one to listen to become up to speed on delay discussions with respect to bail. Before Karly reads the decision, Zach and Karly talk delay, Covid, bail, presumption of innocence, and court resources & how it all came together in this one decision.
