Lich’s lawyer, Lawrence Greenspon, said on April 20 that the judge had made many mistakes when he imposed certain conditions on her bail. Greenspon wants to make that argument in the Ontario Supreme Court, but the Crown has argued that the law does not allow a Supreme Court judge to review another Supreme Court judge. After hearing the arguments, Judge Julianne Parfett sided with Greenspon in a ruling Wednesday. It said in its decision that the law required no defendant to be deprived of a reasonable guarantee without a valid reason and that “substantially restricting access to control would be contrary to this right”. “An important purpose of bail provisions is to address the fluid situation common to accusations as they cross the judicial system.” Greenspon will probably now argue that there were legal errors when she was given the terms of Leach’s release. He is expected to argue to give Lich more access to social media while under warranty. Lich, 49, helped raise millions of dollars in support of Freedom Convoy before he was arrested Feb. 17 and charged with conspiracy to commit atrocities, shortly before police launched a major crackdown on protesters. of downtown Ottawa.
