What are the reasons the judge was right to isolate this aspect of the case for consideration?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from R. v. Dummett, 2013 ONCJ 309 (CanLII):
Therefore, while I have decided that the motion judge’s reasons were insufficient, he was right to isolate this aspect of the case for consideration. In my view, delay caused for these reasons should be afforded greater weight in the s. 11(b) calculus: see Regina v. Brown, [2005] O.J. No. 2395 (C.J.), at para. 52.
