The Supreme Court’s 2019 decision in R v Goldfinch signalled a seismic change in the way s 276 applications were to be resolved. In this detailed seminar, Professor Sankoff is joined by Deborah Hatch, who argued Goldfinch before the Supreme Court. They examine the impact Goldfinch has on sexual activity evidence, and consider different arguments that can be made to admit such evidence in light of that important decision.
