Charges of Criminal Harassment withdrawn after extensive pre-trials. K.J. was married to the complainant. A bitter divorce ensued and the complainant was originally charged with various offences after separation. He was convicted of assault and fail to comply. Sometime after those convictions, the complainant then alleged that K.J. was making calls to his employer, posting information on social media and making calls to an agency that the complainant was associated with, all of which was alleged to have caused him to fear for his safety. He also alleged that he lost his job because of the calls. Joseph Neuberger was the defence lawyer. Joseph Neuberger obtained copies of the family court documents, the statement of defence from the wrongful dismissal action brought by the complainant against his former employer and the recordings of the calls made by K.J. Joseph Neuberger met with the Crown and provided a chart detailing the allegations and the source material to refute much of what was alleged by the complainant. Defence lawyer Joseph Neuberger established that all impugned calls may have been unpleasant for the complainant but they contained truthful information and did not contain any threats. More importantly, the complainant was not truthful about many aspects of his evidence. As a result, defence lawyer Joseph Neuberger established that there was no criminal offence committed by K.J. and as such the charges were withdrawn.
