JUDICIAL DISTEMPERMENT IN TEXAS: 1. After ranting and raging in court Judge asks lawyers to ask him to recuse himself. 2. “The court decided that it was unhappy with not one, but two family law attorneys in different matters. Sanctions, you ask? Would you believe shackling (I am not making this up) both attorneys to chairs in the jury box while their separate proceedings continued? 3. A judge “has struck down a California law that had denied those under 21 the right to buy automatic weapons on the grounds that the law was unconstitutional.” Thoughts and prayers for Texas.
NON-INSANE AUTOMATISM – WHAT IT MEANS AND WHAT IT DOESN’T MEAN: I have read a lot of articles that do not understand our Supreme Court decision. This article explains what it really means. “It is false that an individual who is simply drunk or high will be able to avoid criminal responsibility. They and their lawyers would need to prove “extreme intoxication” – a legal concept which requires scientific, expert evidence of what the Supreme Court described as “psychotic, delusional and involuntary conduct” caused by the consumption of a drug. In other words, a person would need to have had no control over their actions because of the drug they consumed.”

FYI DEFACING, DAMAGING, OR TAKING ELECTION SIGNS IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE – Regardless of your opinions, be aware.
THE DISPROPORTIONATE RATE OF INDIGENOUS INCARCERATION IN CANADA – Did you know? “Indigenous women now make up 50 per cent of the female population in federal prisons, even though just 4.9 per cent of women in Canada are Indigenous. For all Indigenous prisoners, men and women, the rate stands at 32 per cent. Bill C-5 would repeal 20 different mandatory minimum sentences, mostly for gun and drug crimes, and re-establish conditional sentences, such as house arrest, for some offences … which proposes undoing aspects of the crime agenda passed under former prime minister Stephen Harper.”
DAVID MILGAARD AND THE PRESUMPTION OF INNOCENCE – He spent 23 years in jail for a crime he did not commit. Wrongful convictions are a real thing in Canada.
WE ARE FACING THE SECOND JORDAN JUDGMENT – It is upon us. There will need to be a severe culling of the backlog of criminal cases. The Ministry of the Attorney General has a choice of whether to resist and fight the inevitable (thereby making the backlog longer) or accept reality. Let’s see how this plays out.
THE CASE AGAINST THE PRESUMPTION OF IN PERSON COURT APPEARANCES – “Second, the costs savings of Zoom conferences are significant. No travel, no parking, no traffic. Court security line-ups, confrontations, and courthouse conflicts are all eliminated. There is no more sitting around for several hours or the entire day. Legal expenses each of the lawyers representing the parties are also significantly reduced.”
The Brampton Courts have a very real problem managing their caseload within the allowed time frame. Like this case, tomorrow I will be arguing exactly the same issue in my case in Brampton.
