Robert Osadchuck Clerk BY THE COURT JUDGMENT [ 1 ] Earlier this year, the Parole Board of Canada re-assessed Mr. Mataev’s status as a dangerous offender and decided that he would remain in custody for the time being and be re-assessed in two years’ time.
The following quote of Doherty, J.A., reproduced in the decision of the Supreme Court’s in R. v. Sipos ([2014] 2 R.C.S.) at par. 40, is particularly useful: […] Where an offender’s real claim is that he has progressed to the point that his status should be re-assessed, an appeal from the original decision is not the appropriate mechanism by which to achieve that new assessment. [ 2 ] It follows that the new evidence which Appellant seeks to file is clearly irrelevant. FOR THESE REASONS, THE COURT: [ 3 ] DISMISSES the Motion for Leave to File New Evidence.
