The accused pleaded guilty to assault causing bodily harm on November 1, 2011 and assault on November 9, 2017, both involving his wife.
The Crown sought a conditional sentence of one year followed by two years probation, while defence counsel sought a conditional discharge.
The court imposed a conditional discharge with three years probation, finding that despite the seriousness of the offences, the accused's good character, remorse, rehabilitation efforts, and collateral consequences warranted this disposition, which would not be contrary to the public interest.
