Example

Claude is served with a summons to attend the Magistrates Court to answer a charge that he has committed the offence of taking a motor vehicle without consent (punishable by 5 years imprisonment under the Criminal Code, section 318 (1), and so a serious offence for this section). Before the court date, Claude is arrested and charged with having committed an aggravated robbery the day after being served with the summons (punishable by 25 years imprisonment under the Criminal Code, section 310, and so also a serious offence for this section). At the time of the alleged aggravated robbery, the charge of taking a motor vehicle without consent was still pending. This section will apply to any decision about the grant of bail to Claude in relation to the aggravated robbery charge
