- W3173188706 abstract "In its decision in R v Jordan, the Supreme Court of Canada articulated a new metric for determining whether delay in a criminal case breaches an accused's Charter right to a trial within a reasonable time. While the Court has called on all parties to contribute to a more efficient criminal justice system, both in Jordan and in its subsequent decision in R v Cody, it has not addressed how the time taken by a judge to reach a decision should be evaluated. The question will be the focus of R v K.G.K., a recent case from Manitoba that produced three separate decisions at the Court of Appeal, and will require the Court to wrestle with the competing constitutional demands of a trial within a reasonable time and judicial independence.This paper confronts the challenging realities of judicial fact-finding, and posits that judges must be permitted the freedom to reserve their decisions and conduct a detailed, thoughtful analysis of the evidence they have heard and the law's application to the case before them. This is vital to serve both the truth-seeking function of the justice system and to prevent wrongful convictions resulting from missed details, overlooked nuances, and misunderstandings.Accordingly, this paper argues that in K.G.K. the Supreme Court ought to give great consideration to the practical consequences of its decision. While delay is a pressing concern within the criminal justice system, we cannot be so zealous in our quest to eliminate delay that we hamper the ability of judges to properly exercise their judicial decision-making duties." @default.
