In the next few days I’ll be establishing a separate page devoted to my current Application for a Federal Court Judicial Review of the decision of the Canadian Judicial Council regarding my complaint about the misconduct of Justice J. Bryan Shaughnessy on May 3, 2013.

(Whew! Sometimes it takes a run-on sentence to accurately describe a lawsuit.)

Meanwhile, my lawyer Paul Slansky has filed on my behalf a supporting affidavit sworn by me on April 27, 2016.

You can download the affidavit in two PDF files: Vol 1 (10.4mb) and Vol 2 (11.7mb)

A senior Ontario lawyer examined the complaint and the evidence, and stated…

“In all my years of practicing law, this is the most disgusting thing I have ever seen a judge do.”

  • Comrade Shaughnessy

    The judge comes off like a Russian show trial Commissar from the 1950s. His anger and hate of Mr. Best at the end of the so-called trial show the whole process was a sham. Shaughnessy didn’t listen to the tape recordings that prove Best is innocent and the lawyers lied? Shaughnessy wouldn’t allow Best to cross examine the lawyers and witnesses against him? What madness is this in a Canadian court?

    Then the Canadian Judicial Council goes into full cover-up whitewash mode.

    Remind me that this is not Russia, please.
