This decision concerns an application to vary or revoke a publication ban under section 486.51 of the Criminal Code.
The complainant, M.C., requested that the publication ban regarding her identity be revoked, while a witness, A.B., wished the ban to remain in place for her own identity.
The court granted the application in part, rescinding the publication ban as it related to M.C. but maintaining it for A.B., emphasizing the legislative purpose of such bans and the statutory rights of witnesses.
