From the very first moment I spoke to Mr Padda, he made me feel at ease and assured me that he could help me with my case. I was very distraught at the time but he worked with me patiently and tirelessly and was able to get my case withdrawn with no criminal record. It was a very sensitive and emotional issue for me at the time but he was very professional and always kept me updated. Probably one of the best defense lawyers in Halton/Milton area. I remain grateful and appreciative of a job well done. I hope his expertise and professionalism will continue to assist someone in a vulnerable and difficult situation like mine. His costs are reasonable too.

Well folks I really don’t know what to say at this point in time as I’m still in a state of shock & let me explain why ….first off , I was looking at 6 serious charges that were brought against me & that alone is enough to make anyone have nightmares , well I found Inder on the internet & called him up & told him my dilemma & my situation , he then told me that not to worry & he will deal with everything . Well I went & met Inder at his office location in Mississauga & explained my situation , he said it was a tough one but he would give it his best shot & not to worry , well time had past & the trial was coming up & it was time to get prepared for trail , well if you ever had a gym trainer that was so hard on you , then you will find Inder to be the same way , he’s hard & tough on you , but it’s only cause he’s a professional & wants things done correctly so the end results are a victory , well as the trail came up , I was a little skeptical if Inder was really going to pull this off as it was a serious task in hand & nothing short of a miracle , well as the trail went on Inder was being hit with roadblocks that were not looking well for my case , but if any of you people have ever seen the Rocky movie saga’s , Inder was Rocky Balboa , he took all the punches & let the Crown attorney smack him around a little bit , but in the final round he came out guns a blazing & swinging & pulled out all the stops & K.O ‘d the Crown Attorney , this was an amazing feat to achieve & I was very impressed & relieved that Inder had done what he said he would do right from the beginning , he was in my corner & fought till the bitter end & came out victorious , if you don’t like someone is tough on you , then Inder isn’t your man , but if you want results , then there is nobody better that you would want on ur side then Mr . Inder Padda…….kudos to you Mr .Padda I tip my hat to you & will never forget you & how you saved my life

Inder was amazing to work with. He was organized, knowledgeable and empathetic. I came in with 4 serious charges that would have resulted in jail time. He was able to reduce the sentence to 1 charge with no jail time. I couldn't have received a better outcome. Would recommend him highly to anybody. Thanks again Inder!

Peace Bond Procedure

What is a peace bond?

A peace bond can be generally described as a promise/undertaking to the court to keep the peace and be of good behaviour and a promise to follow certain conditions mandated by the court. The provisions governing a peace bond are found in section 810 of the Criminal Code of Canada entitled Sureties to Keep the Peace.

Section 810 of the Criminal Code reads:

An information may be laid before a justice by or on behalf of any person who fears on reasonable grounds that another person (a) will cause personal injury to him or her or to his or her spouse or common-law partner or child or will damage his or her property; or (b) will commit an offence under section 162.1

What is the procedure to a peace bond?

Upon reading the provision noted above section 810 of the Criminal Code, the focus of the hearing is premised upon whether the applicant has reasonable grounds to fear that the defendant will cause injury to him or her or their spouse/common law partner or child, or damage to their property, or commit an offence.

As indicated by the wording in section 810 of the Criminal Code, the procedure of the peace bond is initiated by laying an Information before a justice.

Once the information is laid, the justice shall cause the parties to appear in court, and after hearing the evidence, the judge is satisfied that the applicant has reasonable grounds for the fear, the court may order the defendant to enter into a recognizance (with/without sureties), to keep the peace and be of good behaviour for a period of no more than 12 months (Section 810(2) & Section 810(3) of the Criminal Code).

If the defendant fails or refuses to enter in to the peacebond, the judge may commit the defendant to a term of imprisonment not exceeding 12 months (section 810.3.01 of the Criminal Code).

Types of Peace bond?

Peace bond can vary in type based on the nature of the fear. For example, in the Criminal Code there are many references to fear, including but not limited to: fear of a terrorism offence (s.810.011 & s.83.3 of the Criminal Code), fear of a serious personal injury (s.810.2 of the Criminal Code); etc.

Can I be subject to bail provisions, while awaiting peace bond hearing?

The recent Supreme Court of Canada Decision of R v. Penunsi 2019 SCC 39 highlights the concerns associated with bail and arrest in the context of peace bond hearings. The main issue in this case was whether arrest and judicial interim release (bail) provisions of the Criminal Code apply to peace bonds. The Supreme Court of Canada affirmatively decided that arrest and bail procedures apply to peace bonds. The court discussed a ladder principle in which a person can be compelled to court; when bail applies; and when detention will be justified, all in the context of peace bond hearings (R v. Penunsi 2019 SCC 39, para. 60-86).

If you are subject to a peace bond hearing, you may have a defence available depending on the facts of the case.
