R c Drummond, 2017 CanLII 81318 (NL SC), par Burrage J | NL ![]() |
SC | 3 months CSO | "Following a guilty plea and conviction, the 70-year-old offender was given a conditional sentence of three months concurrent on two counts of forgery of a document, contrary to section 368(1) a) of the Criminal Code. In October 2014 the offender signed two Agreements of Purchase and Sale of real property using a false name, but failed to provide the requisite deposit. As such, the agreements were not legally binding. The offender did not profit from the forgery, nor did the vendors suffer a financial loss. The offender had a prior criminal record for fraud arising from events in 1996-97 and 2013." Trouver des résumés de cas. |
R c Burke, 2016 NLTD 135(*pas de liens CanLII) | NL ![]() |
SC | 12 mois d'emprisonnement | The offender was convicted at trial of fraud, forgery and uttering forged documents. "Mr. Burke, who was a real estate agent, engaged in a 'complex and sophisticated scheme', in which he created eight false Purchase and Sale Agreements for real estate. From 2009 until 2011 he used those agreements and other forged documents to obtain advances on his real estate commissions. As the scheduled closing dates arrived, there were false amending agreements, creating new fictitious closing dates. Eventually, ... “detection was inevitable”. The total monies advanced was $65,331.12, of which $35,821.85 (exclusive of interest) remained outstanding at the time of sentencing."

R c Escott, 2016 CanLII 24770 (NL PC, par Linehan J | NL ![]() |
PC | Ordonnances de probation | "Mr. Escott, who was the president of a local bowler’s association, forged the signature of the association’s treasurer to eight cheques, totalling more than $50,000. There was no associated fraud involved, the cheques involved legitimate expenditures and Mr. Escott did not financially benefit from the forgeries. The matter came to light, however, when a number of cheques were returned by the bank, as there were insufficient funds in the association’s account. Mr. Escott’s actions damaged the reputation of the association and ... constituted a “serious breach of trust”. As against this aggravating factor, Mr. Escott entered a guilty plea, made an early admission to police and had no prior criminal record." [2] Trouver des résumés de cas. |

AB ![]() |
PC | 27 mois d'emprisonnement | "The accused pled guilty to three fraud offences, two counts of personation, and four of uttering forged documents.
...The accused applied for a student loan, without being eligible. He received $1,740. He then forged two letters in an unsuccessful attempt to increase the funding.
... He unsuccessfully attempted to get a driving test supported by a forged permit.
... He obtained credit approval in the amount of $42,822.15, using two forged letters. It appears that he did not access that money. He did, however, obtain a car on credit after supplying other forged documents. The car was repossessed at a loss to the firm of $10,980.
...The accused had a youth record of 68 convictions, including four for personation and 47 for theft and forgery.

AB ![]() |
4 mois d'emprisonnement | For 11 years the offender impersonated a paramedic and doctor without any actual training.
"The accused was sentenced to four months’ imprisonment for uttering a forged document....The accused failed her second year of medical school, and never obtained that degree. Nevertheless, over a period of 13 years she falsely claimed to have a M.D. and a P.H.D. ... She obtained positions at two institutions teaching students in areas related to her purported qualifications. For the first ten years, these claimed degrees were not required qualifications, but may have lead to her being hired over other qualified applicants, and to undeserved promotions. For the last three years, the claimed qualifications were essential to obtaining the positions. ..The accused received an extra salary of $40,000 based on the false claim of qualifications. More importantly, her falsehoods lead to questions about the quality of the education received by her students. ...The accused pled guilty. She had no record. It was also noted that she was largely qualified for the positions that she took and that she received very good performance appraisals. ...Nevertheless, she was sentenced to four months’ imprisonment. The court ruled that general deterrence was required."
