NATURE DE LA CAUSE

 

Droit criminel - Charte canadienne des droits et libertés  - Extradition - La Cour d’appel du Québec a-t-elle erré en décidant que l’ordonnance d’extradition respectait l’article 6  de la Charte canadienne des droits et libertés  dans les circonstances où l’État requérant a agi à la demande et avec la collaboration du Canada dans le cadre d’un projet policier visant des Canadiens se trouvant au Canada, et suivant lequel l’État requérant proposerait son territoire comme situs d’une partie du crime, exigerait des suspects que des actes manifestes s’y commettent et les poursuivrait en justice, à la suite d’une extradition? - La Cour d’appel du Québec a-t-elle erré en considérant que la ministre de la Justice n’avait pas manifestement erré en décidant que l’extradition du demandeur ne portait pas atteinte aux principes de justice fondamentale, eu égard aux éléments apparents au dossier démontrant que le situs de la poursuite avait été décidé en fonction notamment du caractère plus avantageux pour les policiers et la poursuite de la loi américaine?

MOTIONS

 

REQUÊTES

 


 

20.2.1998

 

Before / Devant:   McLACHLIN J.

 


Motion to extend the time in which to file the respondent’s factum

 

Attorney General of Ontario

 

    v. (25838)

 

M. and H. (Ont.)


Requête en prorogation du délai imparti pour déposer le mémoire d’un intimé

 

 


GRANTED / ACCORDÉE

 

I have before me three motions:

 

1)             motion on behalf of the respondent M. for an order removing H.’s counsel from the record or in the alternative for directions to define H.’s counsel role and for an order permitting M. equal time to respond to the arguments by H. and the Attorney General for Ontario;

 

2)             motion on behalf of the respondent H. for additional time for oral submissions (1 hour in total); and

 

3)             motion on behalf of the respondent H. for an order extending the time to serve and file the factum to January 15, 1998.

 

On the first motion, I would dismiss the motion to remove H.’s counsel from the record.  I would adjourn the alternative motion for directions to the hearing of the appeal, when the Court may determine what time, if any, is required to respond to the arguments of H.

 

I would grant the second and third motions.  In granting the second motion, however, I would wish to emphasize that the submissions should be confined to those matters in dispute and that the Court reserves the right to curtail argument should it not prove helpful.

Susan G. Ficek, for the respondent.

 

 

 


DISMISSED reasons to follow / REJETÉE motifs à suivre

 


Nature of the case:

 

Criminal law - Evidence - Trial - Whether the trial judge erred in holding that there was no evidence which would justify leaving the case to the jury - Did the Court of Appeal err in holding that when evidence is taken as a whole and justifiable inferences (not speculation or suspicions) are drawn from its elements, the balanced favours guilt over innocence - Whether there was evidence of guilt which must be considered by the jury. 

 


Nature de la cause:

 

Droit criminel    Preuve    Procès    Le juge du procès a-t-il commis une erreur en concluant qu'il n'y avait aucun preuve justifiant que l'affaire soit soumise à l'appréciation du jury?    La Cour d'appel a-t-elle commis une erreur en concluant que, lorsque la preuve est prise dans son ensemble et que des inférences justifiables (non de simples spéculations ou soupçons) sont faites à partir des éléments de preuve, la balance penchait du côté de la culpabilité plutôt que de l'innocence?    Y avait-il une preuve de culpabilité qui devait être examinée par le jury?
