Azoulay v R
''Azoulay v R'', () 2 S.C.R. 495 was a decision by the Supreme Court of Canada on abortion in Canada. The Court found that with evidence so complicated, a judge should summarize it to a jury. ==Background== Dr. Leon Azoulay was accused of murder after one of his patients died. This woman, described by Justice Estey as "Mrs. P.", had allegedly received an abortion from Dr. Azoulay which wound up causing a fatal haemorrhage. An autopsy revealed evidence of an abortion. At trial, the judge spoke about the law under which Dr. Azoulay was charged, and told the jury that if they found Dr. Azoulay guilty, there must be evidence beyond a reasonable doubt. He also declined to summarize the facts of the case, saying that they "have been well elaborated by the Defence and the Crown."〔Page 503.〕 Dr. Azoulay was found guilty of manslaughter. Quebec's court of appeal upheld the conviction, albeit with the Chief Justice dissenting that the trial judge's discussion with the jury was inadequate.
