I do not understand what is going on in municipal court. To make things short; some people have made a request to stop proceedings for unreasonable delay. Since judge was sick prosecutors told the accused that theyd receive their argument against the request by post and theyd receive the published judgements they would cite to support that argument and that this would help them to respond to that. What I dont get is; I read those judgements and in each case judges ruled to MAINTAIN a stay for unreasonable delay and accepted the idea that presumed and inferred prejudice applies not only to criminal cases, but to penal cases as well. In other words, a slam dunk for the accused. The Court of Appeal decision seemed to have zero to help the prosecution at all, and the Superior Court decision may have been useful to argue for hiving off much of that delay as inherent delay but that could have been better argued using something else. In short, their supporting documents seem to be more useful for the accused. Perhaps Im just crazy.
