SCOC to rule on Oland bail appeal
The Supreme Court of Canada will rule this week on whether judges were wrong to deny Dennis Oland`s bid for bail while he appealed his murder conviction.
Oland is out on bail now, of course, awaiting a new trial. But his lawyers felt this was a matter that should be discussed in the top court of the country…when convicted killers should be granted bail during appeals. The Supreme Court will deliver its decision Thursday.
