Charges of possession of heroin and marihuana withdrawn prior to trial. Client was stopped by military police while driving near a military installation ostensibly for speeding. The officer conducted a warrantless, illegal search of the client’s vehicle. Client hired Christopher Assie as his defence lawyer. Counsel demonstrated to the Crown the variety of Charter breaches the officers committed and convinced the Crown to simply withdraw the charges without setting the matter down for trial in exchange for the client completing some community service hours up-front. Client, who had no criminal record, now maintains a clean record as the charges were simply withdrawn.
