RE:

HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN (Respondent) v. JOSEPH WATSON (Appellant)

BEFORE:

O'CONNOR A.C.J.O., WEILER and ABELLA JJ.A.

COUNSEL:

Constance Baran-Gerez for the appellant

Joan Barrett for the respondent

HEARD & ENDORSED:

July 4, 2003

On appeal from the conviction entered and the sentence imposed by Justice M. Masse dated June 27, 2002.

APPEAL BOOK ENDORSEMENT

[1] We did not call upon the Crown on the conviction appeal as we are of the view that the appellant does not meet the requirements for setting aside a guilty plea set out in R. v. Adgey (1973), 13 C.C.C. (2d) 177 (S.C.C.).

[2] We are satisfied that the sentence of 11 months was fit.

[3] The appeals from conviction and sentence are, therefore, dismissed.
