Le 18 juillet 2025, la Cour supr\u00eame du Canada a rendu son arr\u00eat dans l'affaire R. c. I.M.<\/em>o\u00f9 l'ACLC a agi en tant qu'intervenant. Cette affaire concernait le crit\u00e8re juridique permettant de condamner un jeune comme un adulte. L'affaire a \u00e9t\u00e9 jug\u00e9e par la Cour europ\u00e9enne des droits de l'homme. Loi sur le syst\u00e8me de justice p\u00e9nale pour les adolescents <\/em>est la l\u00e9gislation p\u00e9nale f\u00e9d\u00e9rale qui s'applique aux jeunes de moins de 18 ans accus\u00e9s d'une infraction p\u00e9nale. La loi Acte <\/em>reconna\u00eet que les jeunes ne sont pas totalement ind\u00e9pendants ou matures et qu'ils ne m\u00e9ritent donc pas les m\u00eames peines que les adultes. Les jeunes sont pr\u00e9sum\u00e9s \u00eatre moins moralement condamnables qu'un adulte dans les m\u00eames circonstances. Les LSJPA <\/em>met \u00e9galement l'accent sur la r\u00e9habilitation et la r\u00e9int\u00e9gration. Toutefois, le LSJPA <\/em>permet \u00e0 un jeune d'\u00eatre condamn\u00e9 comme un adulte si la pr\u00e9somption de \"diminution de la culpabilit\u00e9 morale\" peut \u00eatre r\u00e9fut\u00e9e, et qu'une peine pour jeunes ne les rendrait pas correctement responsables.<\/p>\n

L'ACLC a fait valoir que la Couronne doit satisfaire \u00e0 une norme de preuve \u00e9lev\u00e9e, au-del\u00e0 de tout doute raisonnable, pour que la pr\u00e9somption ne s'applique pas. En outre, la r\u00e9futation de la pr\u00e9somption doit \u00eatre ax\u00e9e sur l'ind\u00e9pendance et la maturit\u00e9 de l'adolescent, et non sur la gravit\u00e9 de l'infraction. Dans le cas contraire, l'objectif de la LSJPA <\/em>serait battue en br\u00e8che. La Cour a statu\u00e9 que la Couronne doit r\u00e9futer la pr\u00e9somption de diminution de la culpabilit\u00e9 morale au-del\u00e0 de tout doute raisonnable et ne pas se concentrer sur la gravit\u00e9 de l'infraction. La Cour doit plut\u00f4t s'interroger sur les faits pour savoir si l'\u00e2ge de d\u00e9veloppement du jeune d\u00e9linquant et sa capacit\u00e9 de jugement moral sont les m\u00eames que ceux d'un adulte. Si tel est le cas, il faut alors proc\u00e9der \u00e0 une \u00e9valuation pour d\u00e9terminer si une peine pour adolescents serait insuffisante pour responsabiliser l'adolescent.<\/p>\n

Nous remercions Samantha Secter et Cori Singer d'Addario LLP pour leur excellent travail. pro bono <\/em>repr\u00e9sentation dans ce cas.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t
