Client charged with Impaired Driving and Refuse Breath Sample out of Minden, Ontario. Charges withdrawn! Mr. W.W. retained Mr. John Navarrete to represent him on these charges. Mr. Navarrete reviewed the disclosure and had several meetings with the Crown in Lindsay, Ontario including
a Judicial Pre-Trial to discuss various legal issues including the police officer’s failure to provide proper rights to counsel under section 10(b) of the Charter. Mr. Navarrete drafted an application to exclude the evidence of Mr. W.W.’s refusal to provide a breath sample including his utterances as a consequence of violating his rights to counsel of choice. On the day of trial at the Ontario Court of Justice located in Lindsay, Ontario, and after reviewing Mr. Navarrete’s Charter application, the Assistant Crown Attorney agreed to accept a plea to Careless Driving under the Highway Traffic Act and to withdraw all of the Criminal Code charges.
