Skawski v. Peters, 2023 BCSC 2244

W.N. v. Minister of Employment and Social Development

WCAT No. A1604204

Chris represented the developer of a large construction project in Abbotsford that was fined almost $60,000 in two separate penalty orders for alleged safety contraventions on site. After an initial review, the Review Division doubled the second penalty, increasing the total fine to $90,000. We appealed to WCAT and it was determined the Review Division’s reasoning was flawed. As a result, the second penalty was cancelled altogether and the fine reduced to less than $30,000.

Pringle v. Pringle, 2020 BCSC 75

Chris was co-counsel for the defendant in a case where the plaintiff claimed that the defendant intentionally ran him over with her vehicle. After a six day trial, the Court dismissed the plaintiff’s claims for aggravated and punitive damages and found the plaintiff was in fact 50% responsible for the incident.

R v. Sodyl, 2013 BCPC 213

Chris’ client was charged with possession of a controlled substance. We brought an application for exclusion of the evidence pursuant to Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Court found that the stop of the vehicle was illegal, our client was not provided a timely right to counsel, and the grounds for the arrest were inadequate. As such, the search was deemed to be unreasonable. The evidence was excluded and the client was acquitted of the charges.
