The client was arrested after his vehicle became stuck in a ditch during a severe snowstorm. Counsel brought a Charter application challenging the grounds for arrest, the restriction of his right to counsel of choice and the failure to provide dry clothing. Partway through cross-examination of the arresting officer, which exposed contradictions with the video evidence, the Crown withdrew all charges.

The Reduced Suspension with Ignition Interlock Conduct Review Program enables eligible drivers convicted of a first or second alcohol-impaired driving offence under the Criminal Code to reduce their licence suspension in return for complying with certain criteria, such as having an approved ignition interlock device installed in their vehicle. Sometimes, guilty parties are required to attend an alcohol education course to better understand the dangers of drinking and driving. An impaired driving lawyer from our law firm can discuss impaired driving laws and DUI charges with you during a consultation. Eligible drivers will be sent an information package from the Ministry of Transportation.
A first conviction for impaired driving, over 80, or refusing to provide a breath sample will result in a criminal record and a one-year driving prohibition. There will also be an associated fine and an increase in your insurance premiums. The severity of the punishment increases with the seriousness and frequency of the offence. A second or third offence may result in a jail sentence along with a longer driving prohibition.
When you're facing DUI charges, one of the most critical aspects of your defence is protecting your rights. At Kahlon Law, we are dedicated to upholding and safeguarding your legal rights throughout the entire legal process. As a person accused of a crime, you have a set of rights guaranteed by the Canadian legal system. Some of these fundamental rights include:
The right to remain silent: You have the right to remain silent and not incriminate yourself. This means you do not have to answer any questions from law enforcement without the presence of your legal counsel.
The right to legal representation: You have the right to legal representation. You can choose your lawyer, and it's crucial to have an experienced DUI lawyer by your side to protect your interests.
The right to a fair trial: You have the right to a fair and impartial trial. This includes the right to a trial within a reasonable time and the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.
Protection against unlawful search and seizure: Evidence obtained through unlawful searches or seizures may not be admissible in court. This protection is crucial in DUI cases where the legality of traffic stops and arrests is often challenged.
Protection against self-incrimination: You cannot be compelled to testify against yourself. You have the right to remain silent during questioning.
