REGINA V W.D. [PROVINCIAL COURT, CALGARY]

W was charged with assaulting his domestic partner contrary to section 266 of the Criminal Code. The allegations arose following a domestic dispute where W was arrested upon the arrival of the Calgary Police Service. Calgary Criminal Lawyer Curtis Mennie reviewed all the disclosure of the allegations and prepared the matter for trial and to run the defence of self-defence. On the day of trial the charge against W was stayed as the Crown was not prepared to proceed to trial. W maintained no criminal convictions on his record.
