In Nova Scotia courts, bail matters regularly interrupt and delay busy trial dockets and arraignments. Specialized bail courts are used across Canada to expedite bail hearings for accused individuals, economize scarce judicial resources, and preserve trial time for serious cases.

The introduction of Nova Scotia's first bail court is a welcome addition to the provincial legal landscape, and a prudent investment in our justice system: https://t.co/fB08O4ZXxD.

Updated: Nova Scotia's Liberal government held off on enacting legislation on Friday that would have forced striking Crown attorneys back to work, promising to return to the negotiating table next week. #NSpoli

.@NSCrownAttorney prez Perry Borden reaches out to @MarkFurey1 last evening and they agreed talks would resume Monday. The minister has apologized for his comments yesterday and said they don’t felt how he views the Crowns and public service. #nspoli

[Taryn Grant @tarynalgrant]

Well this changes things—justice minister mark furey says despite passing the bill, the government will not proclaim it and plans to return to the bargaining table with the crowns #nspoli

[michael gorman @MichaelTGorman]

BREAKING NEWS: @nsgov will NOT PROCLAIM BILL 203. The two sides are going back to negotiations. #nspoli

Rick Woodburn says the government are the ones who have not moved from their position. They say Crowns moved from their 17% pay increase during negotiations, contrary to what the Premier has said.

[Natasha Pace @NatashaPace]

Crown Attorneys do not believe Bill 203 is constitutional and are unhappy with how they’re being treated by the McNeil government.
