The appellant pleaded guilty to three counts of fraud and was sentenced to three years in the penitentiary.
He appealed his convictions, seeking to set aside his guilty pleas on the basis of procedural irregularities and a miscarriage of justice.
The Court of Appeal found that the pleas were informed, voluntary, and intended, and that the trial judge's failure to comply with s. 726 of the Criminal Code resulted in no prejudice.
The appeal from conviction was dismissed, and the appeal from sentence was dismissed as abandoned.
