      From: johnturmel@yahoo.com              TURMEL: MedPot Rene Ouellet files more points on Certiorari Stay              JCT: Yesterday, I posted the transcripts from the hearings of       the Keystone Kourts leading up to the motion for Certiorari to       remove the case from Provincial Court Judge Roy and have it       tried in Superior Court. This is the Supplementary       Representations he filed with the transcripts.              CANADA       PROVINCE OF QUEBEC SUPERIOR COURT OF QUEBEC       DISTRICT OF QUEBEC (Criminal Chamber)       LOCALITE: QUEBEC       NO: 200-01-180625-141 Between        Applicant        Rene Ouellet        -and-        Attorney General for Quebec        Respondent               SUPPLEMENTARY REPRESENTATIONS ON STAY PENDING CERTIORARI              AMENDED OVERVIEW              1. The Accused was charged with production of marijuana       contrary to S.7(1) of the CDSA.              2. Accused filed a pre-plea Motion to Amend the indictment by       quashing the S.7 count under S.601 to be dealt with by the       judge of first instance analogous to the pre-plea non-       constitutional motion to quash filed in R. v. J.P. relying on       the Constitutional decision in R. v. Parker that there was no       S.4 possession prohibition absent a medical exemption. Krieger       ruled there was no S.7 production prohibition absent an       exemption. And Hitzig v. HMQ ruled that the medical exemption       was absent from malfunction.              3. Now that the Supreme Court in Smith has ruled in 2015 that       the exemption had seriously malfunctioned, the Parker decision       ruled there was no prohibition absent the exemption again       dating back to 2001. If Constitutional Parker-Hitzig won a non-       constitutional Quash of possession charge for J.P. and 4,000       others across Canada, Constitutional Krieger-Smith should win a       non-constitutional Quash of production charge for the Accused.              4. On Feb 19 2016 Judge Johanne Roy ruled that the S.601 motion       was constitutional and had to be heard by the Trial Judge       though no statute is being challenged under the Charter and       sent the Accused to Preliminary Inquiry. Notices of No       Constitutional Question were served on all attorneys general.              5. On April 20 2016 at the Preliminary Inquiry, Judge Christian       Boulet also refused to adjudicate the Quash motion and ruled       sufficient evidence for trial. When the Accused refused to       elect until the amendment of the indictment had been ruled       upon, the judge ordered the clerk enter an election of "trial       by Superior Court judge an jury."              6. On May 9 2016, Superior Court Justice Pronovost of first       instance also held that the motion had to be heard by the Trial       Judge before a jury and misinformed the Accused he should re-       opt his plea to Provincial Court to deal with his Motion.       Accused agreed to return below not for adjudication of the       trial but of the Quash Motion.              7. On July 29 2016, Judge Alain Morand ascertained that there       was no constitutional issue and that the the S.601 Motion to       Quash should be adjudicated before the Accused "orients his       plea." Due to time constraints, the motion to Quash was       adjourned for the first possible hearing to Sep 2 2016.              8. On Sep 2 2016, Judge Johanne Roy was under the impression       that she was hearing the trial and was unaware of the pre-plea       motion to Quash. Without plea or election, she started the       trial in order to hear the "post-plea" motion to Quash without       taking a plea.              9. On Sep 16 201, Judge Roy dismissed the Quash motion and set       a date to proceed with the trial. But the Accused should then       get to orient his defence and now wanted to be returned to the       jurisdiction of the Superior Court for plea pursuant to the       previous election for judge and jury entered by Judge Boulet.              10. Provincial Court has no jurisdiction to try the Accused       without plea when the election was entered as "Judge and Jury."              11. Though a motion to Amend by Quash is rare, the Accused       right to a jury trial has been denied due to all but one of the       courts believing a S.601 Amend motion had to be heard by the       Trial Judge. The Accused bears no responsibility for the mis-       administration of justice deriving from such mis-understanding       of the non-constitutional nature of a S.601 Motion to Amend (by       quashing a count in the indictment).              12. The Accused always intended to elect trial by judge and       jury and being misinformed that going below was the only avenue       to have the Quash heard should not impede the original election       of the Accused.              FOR THESE REASONS, MAY IT PLEASE THE COURT              GRANT the present Application for Stay of Process while the       motion for Certiorari ordering the removal of the Accused's       file from the Provincial Court to the Superior Court for plea       and trial by judge and jury is adjudicated.        Quebec ____________________        Court place, Date               ________________________________        Applicant Signature        Rene Ouellet       TO: Ministry of Justice       TO: The Registrar of the Court              JCT: Rene is back on Jan 11 for hearing of his motion to get       his case back on proper track. Remember, Certiorari is       something extremely rare, I've only ever had occasion to try it       once before. So it should be shaking up the judges' lunch room       as we try to pull Judge Roy's jurisdiction for the comedy of       errors she started! Har har har. She was the first one who       ruled it had to be heard by the Trial Judge. Error ab initio!       From the start. She did it and now she's caught on the prong of       her own original sin.              Of course, Crown Belanger urged her to make the mistake because       he'd read the motion explaining it wasn't constitutional but       she had not. Har har har. So he didn't tell her about the J.P.       precedent by Justice Rogin and let her err. To win.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
