The appellant appealed as of right from a decision of the British Columbia Court of Appeal dismissing his appeal from convictions for several sexual offences.
The issue was whether the trial judge erred in exercising discretion regarding the severance of counts in the indictment.
The Supreme Court of Canada dismissed the appeal, holding that an appellate court should only interfere with such discretion if the trial judge acted unjudicially or the ruling resulted in an injustice, neither of which occurred here.
