BREACHES OF COURT ORDERS

Understanding the Technicalities

Most people may under estimate the seriousness of breaching a court order.

This is not surprising since most people are good people who have never been in much trouble.

​

If the police have charged with breaching any court order, you need to speak to lawyer.

​

Pleading guilty often is not a wise since it may be more difficult to get bail in the future if someone accuses you of any crime.

​

Even though you think you are caught red-handed, you should speak to a lawyer about defending the charges.

​

In Canada, we believe in Charter Rights, which protect us from the police. If one of your rights were violated, this can help you with your charge.

​

Also, a good lawyer is able to defend against:

​

• Fail to Comply with Recognizance

• Fail to Comply with Undertaking

• Breach of Breach

• Breach of Court Order

• Fail to Comply with Probation Order

• Failure to Attend Court

The Crown must prove a lot of documents and needs a number of witnesses to prove that you actually breached a court order. Since a lot of people plead guilty to these charges, the Crown often does not take them to trial and that is when an experienced lawyer is able to defend you fiercely.
