R. v. James, 2025 ONCA 213; R. v. Arora, 2025 ONCA 218

  • Summary

  • In this episode, defense lawyer Nate Jackson and ChatGPT break down two fresh decisions from the Ontario Court of Appeal:

    1. R. v. James (2025 ONCA 213) — A case about serious drug charges, police misconduct, and Charter breaches. The court excludes key evidence due to a reckless search and right-to-counsel violation, resulting in two acquittals. A clear message: rights matter, even in high-stakes drug prosecutions.
    2. R. v. Arora (2025 ONCA 218) — A dramatic extortion and confinement case involving fake guns, duct tape, and a $1.75 million withdrawal. The court affirms a 7-year sentence, rejecting arguments about double-counting aggravating factors and discounting mitigating ones.
