Cases - Folder Register Name in Directory. Colored, Blurred Image. Closeup View. 3D Render.

In this CCRC Referral the Court was asked to adjudicate on fresh evidence from a psychiatrist altering a previous opinion that the applicant was suffering from a diminishment at the appropriate time.

However the Court concluded that the additional evidence upon which the opinion was based was before the original trial in all material respects and did not accept the expert opinion. It preferred the Crown’s experts view that this analysis was flawed.
