Chris Somerville article “Informer privilege and an illustration of illegitimate delay” published in The Advocates’ Journal

Christopher Somerville, Affleck Greene McMurtry LLP

Christopher J. Somerville, Senior Associate at Affleck Greene McMurtry LLP, wrote an original article for the Summer 2019 issue of The Advocates’ Journal: “Informer privilege and an illustration of illegitimate delay”.

The article explains recent developments in criminal law and longstanding protections for the anonymity of confidential informers. Chris also proposes consequences for when accused persons improperly seek the court’s assistance to identify a confidential informer.

The views expressed in Chris’ article are his own, but as part of his private practice at Affleck Greene McMurtry LLP, Chris is proud to represent the Ontario Association of Crime Stoppers.
