加拿大最高法院裁定,限制初步调查权的2019年修正案不适用于一些正在进行的案件。 The Supreme Court of Canada ruled that a 2019 amendment limiting the right to a preliminary inquiry does not apply to some ongoing cases. 该修正案废除了被指控犯有可起诉罪行、刑期不足14年的被告人的权利。 This amendment abolished the right for accused individuals charged with indictable offenses carrying less than 14 years in prison. 法院澄清说,面临14年或14年以上的人可以进行初步调查,也可适用于涉及2019年变化前的事件的案件。 The court clarified that a preliminary inquiry is available for those facing 14 or more years and may also apply to cases involving events before the 2019 change.
