The Crown is also seeking to impose a peace bond for Langevin-Hughes in connection with a charge of fear of injury/damage by another person.
Judge Phillip Seagram ordered the court to fix a trial date for Langevin-Hughes’ assault charges on Tuesday, Feb. 9. The judge agreed to defence counsel’s request that the accused be tried by a separate judge regarding the Crown’s application for a peace bond.
