What Is A Bail Review?
Where a judge or justice of the peace in the Ontario Court of Justice makes an order that the accused should be detained or released on bail, both the Crown (under section 521) and Defence (under section 520) can apply to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice for a review of the detention or release order. The accused can also seek a review of the court"™s decision regarding bail under section 680 of the Criminal Code.
