3. ALLEGATION AND CHARGES REVIEWED BY CROWN PROSECUTOR

4. REQUEST TO POLICE FOR MORE INFO/EVIDENCE BY CROWN

6. PRE-TRIAL DISCUSSION Purpose of this discussion is to see if the case will go the trial route or non trial route NON TRIAL ROUTE -If the accused pleads guilty or the Crown withdraws the charges TRIAL ROUTE - If the accused pleads not guilty and/or the Crown wants to prosecute a charge that the accused does not agree with/accept they have committed.

7. PRE-TRIAL MEETING BETWEEN JUDGES, DEFENCE & CROWN
