Lady Justice Statue; Follow this link to view years of documentation, revealing evidence, of what conduct the Judiciary and Law Society of New Brunswick continue to misrepresent as symbolizing fair and equal administration of the law, without corruption, avarice, prejudice, or favor.

Representations of the Lady of Justice in the Western tradition occur in many places and at many times. She sometimes wears a blindfold, more so in Europe, but more often she appears without one. She usually carries a sword and scales. Almost always draped in flowing robes, mature but not old, no longer commonly known as Themis, she symbolizes the fair and equal administration of the law, without corruption, avarice, prejudice, or favor.

2013 New Year's Resolution:
To however, cause the Judiciary of New Brunswick to uphold the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Reason being, that, the Charter is applicable in New Brunswick, just as all provinces are bound by the Constitution.
Despite the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms was adopted in 1982, it was not until 1985, that, the main provisions regarding equality rights (section 15) came into effect. The delay was meant to give the federal and provincial governments an opportunity to review per-existing statutes and strike potentially unconstitutional inequalities.

Summary conviction or indictable? Basic Information

Summary conviction offences

Summary conviction offences encompass the most minor offences in the Criminal Code. Examples are "communicate for the purpose of obtaining the sexual services of a prostitute," "cause disturbance," and "harassing telephone calls."

Unless a different penalty is specified, summary conviction offences are punishable by a fine of up to $5,000 or six months' jail or both.

You cannot be fingerprinted for a summary conviction offence. Also if you are convicted of a summary conviction offence as an adult, you are eligible for a pardon three years from the time you complete your sentence (e.g., payment of fine or restitution, completion of probation). Following conviction of an indictable offence, you must wait five years before pardon eligibility.

Indictable offences

An indictable offence is more serious than a summary conviction offence. Conviction of an indictable offence exposes you to greater penalties.

If you are prosecuted by indictment, you are entitled to trial by jury for most offences. You do not have the right to trial by jury if you are tried by indictment for offences such as Drive Disqualified (i.e., driving while prohibited as a result of a conviction for impaired driving), Theft Under $5,000, Fraud Under $5,000, or Mischief Under $5,000.

Hybrid offences

Many offences can be prosecuted either by summary conviction or indictment. The Crown chooses or elects the mode of prosecution. Such offences are referred to as "hybrid" (or "Crown option" or "dual procedure"). Hybrid offences include impaired driving, assault and theft under $5,000. Hybrid offences are considered indictable until the Crown makes its election.
