SUPPLEMENTARY REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

 

 

 

McFADYEN J.A.

 

 

 

[1]               The appellant, having succeeded in his appeal against conviction, asks this Court to award costs.

 

 

 

[2]               Under Rule 21(2) of the Court Martial Appeal Rules, the Court has discretion to award costs. Although the Rule gives the Court a broad discretion, the Court does not award costs routinely. Nothing in the conduct of this prosecution, nor in the complexity of the issues raised, takes this case out of the ordinary so as to persuade us to award costs.

 

[3]               The application for costs is dismissed.
