James Tsioubris (appellant) v. The United States of America (respondent)
(27774; 2001 SCC 20)
Indexed As: United States of America v. Tsioubris
Supreme Court of Canada
McLachlin, C.J.C., Gonthier, Iacobucci, Major, Bastarache, Binnie and Arbour, JJ.
April 5, 2001.
Summary:
The accused, a Canadian citizen resident in Canada, faced fraud charges in Pennsylvania. The United States applied to extradite the accused. The accused opposed extradition, claiming, inter alia, that his s. 7 Charter rights would be violated if he was extradited because of statements made by the American judge assigned to the case and the prosecutor. He also claimed that the United States did not make out a prima facie case and that there was undue delay.
The Ontario Court (General Division), in a decision reported at 42 O.T.C. 288, held that the United States made out a prima facie case. The court dismissed the delay application. The court held that it had jurisdiction to hear Charter arguments. The court ordered that the extradition proceedings be stayed because the accused had been publicly threatened by the trial judge and the prosecuting attorney in a manner that violated his s. 7 Charter rights. The United States appealed.
The Ontario Court of Appeal, in a decision reported 125 O.A.C. 122, allowed the appeal, set aside the stay and remitted the matter to the General Division. The accused appealed.
The Supreme Court of Canada allowed the appeal for the reasons given in United States of America v. Cobb et al. 145 O.A.C. 3; 267 N.R. 203.
