The Criminal Court Process in Peel Region

The first appearance is generally procedural. It does not decide guilt or innocence. Before substantive decisions are made, the defence should obtain disclosure, identify missing material and assess the factual and legal issues.

Shikhman Barristers reviews the Crown disclosure, identifies factual and legal issues and examines whether police acted within the limits of the law. The work required depends on the circumstances of the case.
