Summary
Case summaries are prepared by the Office of the Registrar of the Supreme Court of Canada (Law Branch). Please note that summaries are not provided to the Judges of the Court. They are placed on the Court file and website for information purposes only.
The applicant appealed his conviction in the Court of Quebec of one count of the illegal practice of law. A Superior Court judge issued an order dismissing the applicant’s request for his appeal to be heard by an “Indigenous Tribunal”, and requiring him to pay certain court fees and to obtain and pay for the transcripts of his trial proceedings before the Court of Quebec. The applicant then filed a notice of appeal as of right against the order of the Superior Court, in the Quebec Court of Appeal. The respondent Bar of Montréal filed a motion to dismiss the appeal. A three-member panel of the Court of Appeal granted the respondent’s motion, and dismissed the applicant’s proposed appeal as of right.
