Criminal law 2019 ONCA 946

R. v. U. A.

The appellate court dismissed the conviction appeal because the trial judge's credibility findings were well-reasoned and entitled to deference; the sentence appeal was dismissed because the sentence was not demonstrably unfit, the trial judge did not improperly rely on the step principle and permissibly treated the prior conviction as aggravating, and the denial of enhanced pre-sentence credit for segregation was a proper exercise of discretion; however the victim surcharge imposed at trial was set aside.
