Our firm operates the Alberta Criminal Trial Research Centre, a research facility available to lawyers across Alberta.  The Centre has for a number of years published a weekly newsletter subscribed to by lawyers, judges and law libraries across Alberta.  This newsletter updated the legal community weekly with summaries of recently decided Alberta criminal cases.  A shorter version of this publication called The Update has recently been made available to the legal community through free electronic weekly delivery.  Members of the general public can now access The Update below. 

The cases summarized may or may not be consistent with higher precedent cases, may have been overturned on appeal in the interim, or may be subject to ongoing appeals.  Please note that all summaries are highly abbreviated.  Full text copies of all cases can be obtained from the Alberta Criminal Trial Research Centre care of this firm, or by logging on to the Alberta Court web site at Alberta Courts.
