Manitoba Court of Appeal
Monnin, C.J.M., Matas and Huband, JJ.A.
October 11, 1984.
Summary:
The accused, a bank manager, was convicted of fraud involving approximately $20,000.00 taken from the bank. The trial judge suspended sentence for three years, ordered supervised probation and the performance of 500 hours of community service work. The Crown appealed, arguing that the offence called for a term of incarceration.
The Manitoba Court of Appeal set aside the suspension of sentence and imposed a fine of $4,000.00 or six months in default, plus three years' probation and the continuation of the 500 hours of community service. Monnin, C.J.M., would have set aside the entire sentence and imposed a term of nine months' imprisonment.
