R. v. P.B.P.

(Calgary, P.C. - Domestic Assault).  David Chow is a full service Calgary criminal lawyer who routinely defends domestic assault allegations. PBP was charged with common assault, uttering threats and assaulting a police officer arising out of an unfortunate incident involving a domestic partner.  After evaluating the case it was determined that PBP had a number of quality defences, including a credible argument that his rights were breached contrary to s. 8 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Notwithstanding the quality defences, the Crown and Defence engaged in resolution discussions, ultimately resulting in a plea bargain to resolve by way of a "conditional discharge".  A conditional discharge is a disposition where despite the accused being found guilty, the Court orders that no permanent criminal record will register. To avoid the risk and costs of a trial, PBP accepted the conditional discharge. David Chow understands that there are many Calgary criminal lawyers to choose from.
