Charges of Fraud Over $5,000.00, Obtain Credit by False Pretence Over $5,000.00, and False Documents x 2 dismissed after three week trial in the Ontario Superior Court. The clients were allegedly involved in a multi-million dollar corporate fraud scheme where credit was allegedly obtained from banks and supplies based on false trade references and financial statements. The credit was used to obtain financing for the purchase of various items including computer components, furniture and painting and manufacturing equipment. Defence lawyer Joseph Neuberger conducted the defence and extensively cross-examined each prosecution witness undermining the Crown theory that both clients were involved and knowledgeable about the scheme. Joseph Neuberger was able to establish through cross examination that the director of the accused corporation was the main perpetrator of the fraud and acted in concert with one other employee not related to R.T. and L.S. Accordingly, the clients were found not guilty.
