Peter Nygard Requests Bail Pending Appeal - Canada

Former fashion mogul Peter Nygard asks an Ontario court to review the decision to deny him bail as he appeals his convictions and sentence for sexual assault, on November 5, 2024. Nygard was convicted of four counts of sexual assault last year after several women came forward with allegations dating from the 1980s to the mid-2000s. He was sentenced to 11 years in prison, but the trial judge specified that he would have just under seven years left to serve once time already spent in custody was taken into account. His lawyers have raised several grounds for appeal, including that his sentence is “excessive” and that the trial judge made several errors, including admitting expert evidence on the effects of trauma.
