R. v. J.G.I.

(Fort McMurray, Alta. C.A.). Client was convicted of impaired driving in Fort McMurray, Alberta.  The evidence was suspect and its value limited. David Chow appealed on behalf of the JGI.   On October 31st, 2011 his appeal was granted by a judge of the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta.  The judge held that there was an error of law with respect to the application of the test for impaired driving.  He also questioned, whether the evidence, taken at its best was capable of proving he case beyond a reasonable doubt.  Also, the judge was of the opinion that the evidence did not justify reasonable and probable grounds for arrest.  The case was returned for a new trial and the charges were stayed by the Crown.
