It applies to Provincial Court and Supreme Court sentence hearings. It is intended for use by defense counsel. It should also be used with the "Criminal Procedure" checklist. This checklist is designed to help counsel prepare for sentencing proceedings: to identify and organize relevant information required to persuade a judge of the merits of a sentence being suggested on behalf of the client. However, a simple recitation of the checklist information should not replace advocacy on behalf of the client. When preparing for sentencing proceedings, counsel should be guided by: (1) the principles of sentencing as set out in the Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46; (2) the case law; and (3) the sentence proposed on behalf of the client.

“I’m not a tech guy and I was able to pick this thing up in probably an hour, and actually start to build apps. I’ve done them over lunch when I’ve gotten frustrated with a process that didn’t exist in our company. So for non tech people who’ve got a problem, the support here is awesome and I’d recommend it to anybody, not just in our industry.”
