TORONTO — Former fashion mogul Peter Nygard's legal team has asked an Ontario court to review a decision to deny him bail as he appeals his sexual assault convictions and sentence.
The judge who rejected Nygard's bail application wrote at the time that his appeal appeared to be"weak" and that he presents a flight risk since he faces charges in other jurisdictions. In her bail application decision, Appeal Court Justice Lene Madsen wrote that the new medical report Nygard submitted relied heavily on self-reported information and that his health needs were considered at the sentencing stage.
Madsen also raised issues with Nygard's proposed plan to reside in a Winnipeg property, now owned by one of his employees, while out on bail. "The argument for release issue was that the applicant would never be prepared to lose $1 million dollars by breaching any release order," Nygard's lawyers wrote in their written submissions.
