* Accepting bribe
* Fraud over $5,000.
* Breach of trust
* Offering to influence public official
* Application for records in the possession of the province of B.C.

There's no mention of Dave Basi.

Is McCullough the lawyer for Basi?
As I reported here earlier in the comments and on Bill T's blog, there was some discussion at the end of the last April hearing, which I attended,about a letter to the premier and others. McCullough wanted the premier to answer some written questions without any help from lawyers or others. Copeley's answer was a simple "no".
It was finally agreed that if McCullough did not get a satisfactory answer they would appear again in court today, May 2 2008.
By this scheduling I assume that nothing satisfactory to defense was worked out. Of course at this writing they (the government)still has about 15 mins. to change their mind. Thus wasting more taxpayers money.
Question: What is the government so afraid of, that they don't want 4 people including the premier to answer simple questions on their own?

What is this government afraid of...
The truth coming out that dirty tricks are not solely reserved for opposition candidates, that it now includes the whole of the public domain.

The government is afraid of nothing, its the following civil suit that is the stumbling block for them.

"The government is afraid of nothing, its the following civil suit that is the stumbling block for them."
There is nothing "civil" about these guys! Let's just deal with the obvious criminal matters and let them rot in their cells!
The last I knew, perjury, fraud and theft as well as negligent homicide were all criminal offenses. Just save the civil suits as a "fallback" like with OJ, if justice just won't be served on the criminal plane. With these guys there is hardly time to deal with the merely "ethical" lapses.
