On an application for a stay under s. 11(b) of the Charter, the court held that although total delay reached 1,316 days, 455.5 days were properly attributed to defence delay (including multiple adjournments, failures to appear, delayed election steps, and partial apportionment after late notice of delay concerns).
After deduction, net delay was 860.5 days (28.3 months), below the 30-month Jordan ceiling for Superior Court matters.
The application was dismissed.
