Bostjan Soba



Appellant



John Norris and Brydie CM Bethell, for the appellant



Richard A. Kramer, for the respondent



Heard: February 17, 2011

APPEAL BOOK ENDORSEMENT



[1]

Mr. Soba submits that the committal order ought to be set aside because
    the extradition judge erred in her appreciation of the discrepancies in the
    ROC.  He relies on the decision of the British Columbia Supreme Court  in
Tarantino
.

[2]

We do not agree with this submission.  This case differs significantly
    from
Tarantino
.  The discrepancies in this case were minor, and were
    corrected in the supplementary ROC.  In our view, these minor discrepancies did
    not taint the remaining evidence in the ROC.

[3]

Moreover, as Mr. Soba concedes, there is sufficient evidence in the ROC,
    apart from the evidence he challenges, to justify the committal order on all
    the charges.

[4]

Accordingly, the appeal from the committal order is dismissed.
