Robin McCaghren says he only discovered he had two unpaid $100 fines for failing to attend court and failing to appear in 1997 and 1998 when he got a criminal record check.
A Nanaimo man believes that a decades-old clerical court error is the reason he can’t apply for a pardon for five years.
“When I began this process in October, I didn’t know those fines existed,” McCaghren said Wednesday. “I believed from the start that I’m in the clear and my criminal record was behind me. I thought it was all dealt with. I think this must be a clerical error in the court system.” After completion, the person must wait a set number of years — based on the date when they committed their first offence — before applying for a record suspension.“It’s ironic. The whole mandate of the Parole Board of Canada is to put people on the straight and narrow and have them become contributing members of society,” he said. “And I am very far removed from the kid I was living on the street.
“I was never involved in the break-in,” said McCaghren, who did time, was fined and put on probation.
