Accused \u0027Freedom Convoy\u0027 organizer Tamara Lich has retained the services of Ottawa criminal defence lawyer Lawrence Greenspon,
Lich was set to appear Monday morning before Superior Court Justice Robert Pelletier to ask the judge to relax some of the bail conditions that currently limit her access to social media.
The mischief and counselling to commit mischief charges against Lich were recently updated to include Chris Barber as a co-accused. The two accused convoy leaders are being charged jointly and would likely appear together once the case reaches a trial. In a virtual hearing beset by technical difficulties — described as “something of an Italian opera that ended tragically” by the judge — the parties agreed to set a new date for a new Superior Court Justice to hear the bail review.
