Recent Success: Charged for Trafficking and Possession of Marijuana

Allegations

My client was charged with Trafficking Marijuana and Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking in Marijuana. Both charges were dismissed at trial.

My client was arrested as a result of a search warrant that was executed at their residence. The police seized a large quantity of dried marijuana. The search warrant was obtained as a result of surveillance by the police of several individuals including my client over a 2-month period.

Trial Proceedings and Results

At trial, I brought several charter applications including an application to have the search warrant quashed. As a result, the matter was thrown out during the foregoing application. Some of the dynamic that went into winning this trial involved cross examining the officer who wrote up the search warrant on inconsistent statements. These statements were made to and from other officers and the Crown.

The lawyer you choose to represent you has to be able to cross examine the officers with respect to the statements they made to the assigned Crown, even if that may be placing the Crown in a precarious position. Donna Pledge has done such cross-examinations many times and is willing to do it again.
