The term "revocation" refers to the "process of dealing with alleged misconduct of an accused on judicial interim."[1]

[omitted (1) and (2)]

Cancellation

(3) The judge or justice who hears the matter shall cancel a summons, appearance notice, undertaking or release order in respect of the accused if the judge or justice finds that

(b) there are reasonable grounds to believe that the accused has committed an indictable offence while being subject to the summons, appearance notice, undertaking or release order.

Note up: 524(3)

Burden Standard of Proof

The standard of proof under s. 524 is on proof of "reasonable ground" while under s. 524(b) is on proof of balance of probabilities.[2] The burden is upon the Crown.[3]

Effect of Cancellation

524 [omitted (1), (2) and (3)]

Detention

(4) If the judge or justice cancels the summons, appearance notice, undertaking or release order, the judge or justice shall order that the accused be detained in custody unless the accused, having been given a reasonable opportunity to do so, shows cause why their detention in custody is not justified under subsection 515(10) [justification for detention in custody].

Note up: 524(3) and (4)

Once a judge cancels a prior release order, they must make a detention order. No show cause hearing is needed before doing so.[4]

Once cancelled the "second stage" of the 524 process says that the accused must be given reasonable opportunity to show cause as to why his detention should not be justified within the meaning of s. 515(10).[5]

A 524 detention order is different from a 516 order of remand whereby a 524 detention order does not have a 3 day limit in the same way as a 516 remand order.[6]

Section 469 Offences

When an accused is granted bail in relation to any charge of murder (or any s 469 offences) and the accused is subsequently arrested for breach of recognizance, "the superior court has jurisdiction, whether under section 524(4) or under section 521 of the Criminal Code, to revoke the accused's bail on the murder charges”.[7]
