legal advice please

[Maverick]

My friend (YES MY FRIEND) was charged with robbery, the crown is proceeding with the charges. He is 100% innocent of these charges.

Anyway, he just got this job and they are doing a criminal record check on him.

will this show up? or will it only show up if he gets convicted? he goes to court in December.

Canada legal system remember!

Thanks

So what you're saying is, this thread, much like the Canadian Judicial System, is a joke?

 

[SpyWizard]

hahah.. is he innocent until proven guilty??

or guilty when charged??

what say the crown???

Why doesn't your friend seek legal advice through, hmmm, I dunno, a lawyer? I don't know what job apps are like in Canada, but In the US I've come across apps asking about previous convictions OR charges (ie: "Have you ever been comvicted or charged with a felony....."). So, at the very least, had he said, "no" in response to such a query (I'm assuming the job app came after the charges), then he'd be guilty of lying on app even if not tried for the crime.

a background check will show that he was arrested. very possible it will show what he was arrested for... either way he'll have to explain himself with the job

i just read a book about queen victoria what an imbreed cvnt.
aside from your friends legal problems don't you feel like a douch kissing a foreign gov'ts ass?
the crown sets your laws and standards and is 4 thousand miles away.
time for kanada to get some balls

Well if they do stop "kissing our asses" at least we won't airstrike their infrastructure to rubble & land 100'000s of troops on their shores in retaliation.

What are the details to his robbery anyhoo?

American Employers can't find that out so I doubt Can Employers can. Most employers care more about your myspace/facebook, lol.

Innocent until proven guilty, so he's still innocent. At least for now

I don't actually think "The Crown" has had any real power for a century mate, it's just a figurehead.

I think we done alright with India, they have a better functioning democracy than us tbh lol. S.Africa is originally Dutch colonised I think
