Strathy J.A.

The appellant, Ante Mihaljevich, appealed a disposition of the Ontario Review Board under Part XX.1 of the Criminal Code.

The Court of Appeal noted that the appellant abandoned the appeal.

The appellant appealed a disposition of the Ontario Review Board imposing a detention order.

The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding the detention order was the least onerous and least restrictive disposition given the appellant's history of non-compliance, unstructured lifestyle, and need for daily monitoring to abstain from substance abuse and rule out a schizoaffective disorder diagnosis.

The appellant and his counsel failed to appear for the appeal hearing due to health problems and Law Society difficulties, respectively.

An agent appeared to request an adjournment.

The Court of Appeal granted the adjournment on terms, directing a list judge to set a new hearing date within two weeks, and reserved the costs of the day to the panel hearing the appeal.
