/in , /by

Charges: Fraud Over $5,000 (x4); Theft Over $5,000 (x4).

Issue: Given that full restitution was made and that our client had taken significant steps toward self-rehabilitation, whether jail was the appropriate sentence for this $240,000 employee fraud.

Result: Mr. Mines was able to facilitate the restitution payment and provided medical information to Crown counsel on our client’s behalf. Ultimately Mr. Mines persuaded Crown to  jointly  recommend a non-custodial sentence. After hearing Mr. Mines’ submissions, our client was granted a 2 year less a day conditional senntence.. No jail.
