The appellant appealed convictions for home invasion related offences, challenging the admissibility and reliability of fingerprint evidence due to alleged confirmation bias, and the trial judge's dismissal of an application for a stay of proceedings based on alleged Charter breaches during an altercation in custody.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding no error in the admission of fingerprint evidence and upholding the trial judge's decision to deny a stay, noting the high bar for such a remedy.
