Private Prosecution - General

. R v McHale

In R v McHale (Ont CA, 2010) the Court of Appeal usefully sets out the procedures for the launching of a private prosecution and two appeal grounds relating to private prosecutions. In doing so the case reviews the common law and the statutory (Criminal Code) law extensively. Practically all of the case [paras 4-12,31-88] is a must-read for anyone involved with a private prosecution.

. Lochner v. Ontario (Attorney General)

In Lochner v. Ontario (Attorney General) (Ont CA, 2019) the Court of Appeal considered an unusual appeal regarding a related series of private prosecutions below. The case is interesting for the private prosecution procedures gone through [paras 5-18].
