Drabinsky seeks bail, intends to appeal fraud conviction at Supreme Court

Hardly a surprise; will he get bail? My sense is likely yes -- he's hardly a flight risk:

Former theatre mogul Garth Drabinsky is once again applying for bail and has given notice he is seeking leave to appeal his two fraud convictions in the Supreme Court of Canada.

Drabinsky has applied in the Court of Appeal for Ontario for bail while the Supreme Court considers his case. The bail hearing is scheduled for Friday.

There is not an application on file for bail from his former business partner and Livent Inc. co-founder, Myron Gottlieb, a court of appeal official said.

Not only is this guy a big time thief but he also has made a mockery of our justice system for the past 10 years or so. Now he is finally in jail where he belongs and can't handle it. Cry me a river.

Well, I do not really imagine it is likely to have effect.

May I simply just say what a relief to uncover a person that
genuinely knows what they are talking about on the internet.
You definitely understand how to bring an issue to light and
make it important. More and more people should look at this and understand this side
of your story. It's surprising you're not more popular since you surely possess the gift.
