The applicant applied for a stay of proceedings, alleging a violation of his right to a trial within a reasonable time under s. 11(b) of the Charter.
The global delay was 33 months and 6 days.
The court found that a significant portion of the delay was caused by the applicant's own conduct, specifically breaching his bail conditions and intimidating the complainant, which necessitated new disclosure and an adjournment.
After subtracting the defence-caused delay, the net delay fell below the Jordan presumptive ceiling.
The application for a stay was dismissed.
