The applicant sought to transfer her criminal trial from the Ontario Court of Justice at Orangeville to the Davis Courthouse in Brampton pursuant to Section 599 of the Criminal Code.
The applicant was charged with five criminal offences including impaired operation and breach of probation arising from an incident in the Town of Caledon.
The court dismissed the motion, upholding a longstanding regional policy established in 1997 that transfers Caledon criminal trials to Orangeville.
The court found that the policy was expedient to the ends of justice and that the applicant's personal inconvenience did not warrant departure from the established practice.
