The Crown appealed the 15-month conditional sentence imposed on the respondent for dangerous driving causing bodily harm and flight from police causing bodily harm.
The Crown argued the trial judge misapprehended the length of the driving prohibition under the Highway Traffic Act and erred in imposing a conditional sentence.
The Court of Appeal declined to interfere with the conditional sentence due to the Crown's delay in perfecting the appeal and a shift in its argument without notice.
However, the Court imposed an additional two-year driving prohibition to match the trial judge's intended disposition.
