Charges of possession of stolen property x 13 withdrawn prior to setting trial date. V.L. operates a cell phone store but also purchases used items including used cell phones. A raid on his store resulted in the seizure of a number of items and 13 charges of possession of stolen property. Defence lawyer Joseph Neuberger was able to establish through purchase receipts for the alleged items that a number were not stolen and those that were questionable were purchased at a sufficiently reasonable price that it negated willful blindness on the part of the client. In addition, repeated requests of the Crown to produce statements from the owners of the allegedly stolen items remained unanswered. As such, all charges were withdrawn.
