Can a school principal obtain an order under the Young Offenders Act?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Toronto Community Housing Corporation v. R., 2018 ONCJ 492 (CanLII):
In Scarlett Heights v. K.M., a school principal sought an order under the predecessor Young Offenders Act for the purpose of obtaining evidence to present at an expulsion hearing. While Cohen J. held at ¶ 14 that the principal and school board certainly had a valid interest in protecting students and staff from the violent behaviour of some young persons, on the other hand, “society as a whole has a valid interest, which is congruent with the young person’s own interest, in ensuring that the growth and development of young persons into mature and productive members of society is not impeded by the stigma which attaches to a criminal record”.
