British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from USA v. Johal, 2011 BCSC 1068 (CanLII):
In support of the need for detail to anchor the reliability of identification evidence, the respondent points to USA v. Walker, 2008 BCCA 55 at paras. 26 and 27, in which the requesting state's record of case was found to be deficient because it failed to disclose the time of day, lighting conditions, and duration of the encounter between the identification witness and the person sought.
