RECENT SUCCESS - Here are some of the criminal cases that Daniel Brown has won on behalf of his clients.

 

R v. Lewis - A drug trafficking case involving an illegal arrest and search of the Accused's vehicle by two Durham Region Drug Squad Officers. The judge refused to allow the illegally obtained evidence of cocaine and marijuana to be used during the trial and dismissed the case.

 

R v. D.H.T - D.H.T. was acquitted of assault causing bodily harm and breaching his bail conditions. It was alleged that D.H.T., a man in his twenties, shot a lit firework at the back of an eight year old boy from point blank range causing second degree burns to the boys upper back. It was also alleged that D.H.T. did this while he was subject to a house arrest bail condition prohibiting him from being outside of his residence. After cross examining the young complainant, doubt was raised in the mind of the judge as to whether the youth was telling the truth about how he obtained his injuries. The judge ultimately ruled that it was probable the boy suffered his injuries accidentally and not intentionally as the Crown Attorney alleged.

 

R v. Dennis  - A case where evidence that the accused was in possession of marijuana and a knife, breaching his bail and obstructing a police officer by falsely identifying himself to the officer was excluded from evidence at trial resulting in an acquittal on all counts due to the illegal stop, search and questioning by a Peel police officer of a passenger in a motor vehicle.  The judge concluded that the police officer lied when he testified that the accused was committing a Highway Traffic Act infraction when the officer investigated the accused. Without this lie, the Police officer would have had no lawful basis to question the accused and locate the evidence he later found. This is an example of a suspected case of racial profiling by the Peel region police officer.

 

R v. Ferrigon - A drug case involving an illegal search and arrest of Mr. Ferrigon conducted by two Toronto Police Officers. The judge refused to allow the illegally obtained evidence to be used at trial and dismissed the case on the basis of the illegal search and arrest.  

 

R v. S.V. - A breach of bail allegation dealing with an arbitrary detention and search of three youths by police. The Judge ruled that the police officers had no basis to stop and question three boys on their way to play basketball based solely on the type of clothing they were wearing. The evidence that one of the boys was breaching his house arrest bail was excluded at trial, resulting in an acquittal.

 

R v. Williams - a case where the client was acquitted of an assault on two police officers following an illegal arrest by the officers.

 

R v. Myers  - a case concerning the legality of Toronto street signs not written in both English and French.
