The applicant sought a bail review after being denied bail by a Justice of the Peace following charges related to a loaded firearm found in her car.

The applicant argued errors in the initial decision and a material change in circumstances due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a new release plan.

The Crown conceded the pandemic as a material change, allowing a de novo assessment.

The court considered the applicant's extensive criminal record, history of breaching court orders, the seriousness of the current charges (including being in breach of a conditional sentence at the time of the offence), and the inadequacy of the proposed surety and release plan.

The court dismissed the application, finding that the applicant failed to meet her onus on primary, secondary, and tertiary grounds, and that releasing her would undermine confidence in the administration of justice, even considering the pandemic.
