The applicant sought leave to appeal under s. 131 of the Provincial Offences Act from a judgment dismissing her appeal of a sentence for a zoning infraction.
The applicant's son had pleaded guilty on her behalf and agreed to a fine, but later appealed the fine.
The appeal court judge dismissed the appeal due to delay in filing transcripts, despite the applicant's son appearing with the transcripts and explaining the delay.
The Court of Appeal granted leave to appeal, finding that the applicant may not have had a full and fair opportunity to argue the motion or the appeal, raising concerns about the due administration of justice.
