La Cour supr\u00eame a rendu aujourd'hui son\u00a0d\u00e9cision<\/a>\u00a0dans\u00a0Groia c. Barreau du Haut-Canada,\u00a0<\/em>une affaire qui examine quand un barreau peut discipliner un avocat pour \u00ab incivilit\u00e9 \u00bb pr\u00e9sum\u00e9e dans la salle d'audience. La Cour a infirm\u00e9 la d\u00e9cision disciplinaire du Barreau, la jugeant d\u00e9raisonnable compte tenu des circonstances et du contexte particuliers de l'affaire. Dans l'ensemble, c'est un bon r\u00e9sultat pour la libert\u00e9 d'expression et les droits des clients.<\/p>\n

Groia a d'abord \u00e9t\u00e9 reconnu coupable de faute professionnelle en raison de d\u00e9clarations qu'il a faites au sujet de la conduite des procureurs dans la poursuite de son client pour violation de la\u00a0Loi sur les valeurs mobili\u00e8res.\u00a0<\/em>Les d\u00e9clarations ont \u00e9t\u00e9 faites devant un tribunal, devant un juge et pour d\u00e9fendre les droits constitutionnels de son client \u00e0 un proc\u00e8s \u00e9quitable. L'ACLC est intervenue dans l'affaire parce qu'elle craignait qu'une interpr\u00e9tation trop large de l'exigence de civilit\u00e9 puisse avoir un effet dissuasif sur les avocats et les dissuader de d\u00e9fendre avec z\u00e8le les droits de leurs clients. Nous avons fait valoir que le seuil pour sanctionner un avocat pour incivilit\u00e9 sur la base de d\u00e9clarations au tribunal devrait \u00eatre tr\u00e8s \u00e9lev\u00e9 : uniquement dans les cas les plus clairs, lorsque l'incivilit\u00e9 all\u00e9gu\u00e9e compromet gravement l'administration de la justice ou est susceptible d'entra\u00eener une erreur judiciaire. Nous avons \u00e9galement fait valoir que tout examen a posteriori par l'autorit\u00e9 de r\u00e9glementation devrait tenir d\u00fbment compte de la mani\u00e8re dont la conduite a \u00e9t\u00e9 trait\u00e9e (ou non trait\u00e9e) par le juge qui pr\u00e9side au moment o\u00f9 les d\u00e9clarations ont \u00e9t\u00e9 faites.<\/p>\n

Bien que la majorit\u00e9 de la Cour supr\u00eame n'ait pas adopt\u00e9 le seuil \u00e9lev\u00e9 propos\u00e9 par l'ACLC, elle a reconnu l'importance centrale de laisser aux avocats la libert\u00e9 de s'exprimer, en particulier pour d\u00e9fendre les droits de leurs clients. Il a \u00e9galement not\u00e9 que les poursuites pour incivilit\u00e9 devraient cibler les comportements qui ont un impact n\u00e9gatif sur l'administration de la justice ou l'\u00e9quit\u00e9 d'une proc\u00e9dure particuli\u00e8re.<\/p>\n

En fin de compte, la majorit\u00e9 a conclu que l'approche adopt\u00e9e par le comit\u00e9 d'appel du Barreau recherchait un \u00e9quilibre proportionn\u00e9 entre la libert\u00e9 d'expression et le mandat et la fonction du Barreau, et a conclu qu'il fallait tenir d\u00fbment compte de la fa\u00e7on dont un juge qui pr\u00e9side d\u00e9clarations d'avocats qui, par la suite, seraient constitutives d'incivilit\u00e9. De mani\u00e8re significative, la majorit\u00e9 a \u00e9galement conclu que l'erreur d'un avocat au sujet de la loi (commise de bonne foi et sur une base raisonnable) ne pouvait pas constituer la base d'une conclusion de faute professionnelle fond\u00e9e sur l'incivilit\u00e9. Bref, il n'est pas impoli de se tromper.<\/p>\n

Bien que le r\u00e9sultat final dans cette affaire soit encourageant, l'ACLC demeure pr\u00e9occup\u00e9e par le fait que l'approche adopt\u00e9e par la Cour ne donne pas suffisamment d'indications aux avocats sur les limites d'une conduite acceptable et, en fin de compte, affecte la fa\u00e7on dont les clients sont repr\u00e9sent\u00e9s. Il sera important de surveiller comment les r\u00e9gulateurs juridiques interpr\u00e8tent la d\u00e9cision et quel effet elle a sur les avocats, en particulier ceux engag\u00e9s dans le travail de d\u00e9fense p\u00e9nale.<\/p>\n
