COURT OF APPEAL FOR ONTARIO

CITATION: R. v. Roberts, 2013 ONCA 453

DATE: 20130628

DOCKET: C56247

Laskin, Tulloch and Strathy JJ.A.

BETWEEN

Her Majesty the Queen

Respondent

and

Winston Roberts

Appellant

J. Thomas Wiley, for the appellant

Roger A. Pinnock, for the respondent

Heard: June 26, 2013

On appeal from the conviction entered on June 23, 2011 by
    Justice Kendra Coats of the Superior Court of Justice, sitting with a jury.

APPEAL BOOK ENDORSEMENT

[1]

The appellant submits that the Crowns closing address to the jury
    undermined the principle of jury unanimity. We disagree.  The decisions of this
    court in
Robinson
and
Sandhu
are directly contrary to the
    appellants submission.  Further, we note that at trial defence counsel
    conceded that the only live issue was consent.

[2]

The appeal is dismissed.
