Legal Question (interpret the meaning and application of a law) [1913] Legality of Plea Bargains
#11

North Prarie Wrote:I was charged with Contempt and Bribery. You can see that if you look at the HC's Determination of Justaciability.

You were charged for Contempt by the court. It was included with the original charge of Bribery in which you were charged.  The question I have is how is it legal for the court to add an additional charge during the evidence collection phase.  The way in which they brought up the Contempt charge makes it seem that a verdict was already determined before justiciability was determined.  Also with the court brining up its own separate charge how can it remain impartial in judgment?  Should not the Contempt charge been an entirely separate charge to be determined on its own merits and adjudicated by a separate and new justice?
