Criminal Law

  1. Serving a life sentence for a vicious crime and you want to find out why nobody likes you anymore;
  2. Are a curious law student trying to avoid reading 36 long legal cases on actus reus; or
  3. A rookie district attorney or Crown counsel looking for something clever to tell the judge.

If you answered "yes!" to anyRoger of the above, you have come to the right place!

Unless otherwise noted, this article was written by Lloyd Duhaime, Barrister, Solicitor, Attorney and Lawyer (and Notary Public!). It is not intended to be legal advice and you would be foolhardy to rely on it in respect to any specific situation you or an acquaintance may be facing. In addition, the law changes rapidly and sometimes with little notice so from time to time, an article may not be up to date. Therefore, this is merely legal information designed to educate the reader. If you have a real situation, this information will serve as a good springboard to get legal advice from a lawyer.
