Crown stays charges of bid rigging in condo renovations
A high-profile criminal case of alleged bid-rigging in the condominium refurbishment business has collapsed amid issues of court timing and concerns about the original search warrant application.
A decision by crown prosecutors to stay charges of alleged fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud and bid rigging is an unceremonious end to an investigation begun by the Competition Bureau of Canada in 2012 that covered conduct in the Toronto-area condo services industry stretching between 2006 and 2014.
